Letters
The children all enjoyed reading lots of books as part of World Book Day 2021 - both fiction and non-fiction. They looked fantastic! A big thank you to everyone that dressed up.

Remembrance Day
European Languages Day
We enjoyed celebrating 'European Languages Day'. The country we focused on was Italy. We ate some yummy pizzas for our snack; we made delicious looking gelato in the playdough and sand areas; we created towers using spaghetti and penne pasta; we made our own 'crafty' pizzas; we played 'restaurants' in our very own Stepping Stones Pizza restaurant and we also created the Italian flag with some excellent finger painting. Check out some of our pictures below:
Mrs Ritchie and Mrs Smith have been so impressed with how well the Stepping Stones children have settled into Nursery - whether it has been their very first time at our setting or if they have returned after a break, everyone has settled brilliantly. Our preschoolers are demonstrating a fantastic 'learning attitude' already and have taken to carpet times with their new teachers like ducks to water.
Below you can see some photos of some of the fun things that we have been up to both inside and outside:
We've been shape detectives during our Mathematics time this week...
We've been enjoying 'The Three Little Pigs' - we've listened to and sequenced the story, we've explored puppets and we've been master builders like the third Little Pig...
...we've even practised our 'huffing' and 'puffing' like the Big Bad Wolf by blowing bubbles!
Look at some of the other fun we've been having...trike riding, puzzles, careful cutting, mark making, number fun in the sand and we've even splashed in the puddles. What a fun week at Stepping Stones!
