The End of Term.

Well it has been a fun filled term! From releasing our butterflies that we nurtured from caterpillars, our Beach Safety session with Oak Class and being 'Giants' at Forest School. The children at Northrepps Pre-School really have done us all proud.

On our last day we celebrated our achievements with some of our families and said goodbye to children who are moving onto big school or pastures new. We wish them all the best and look forward to hearing about their adventures.

What better way to end the the term than with entertainment from the wonderful children's entertainers Aunt Pearl and Jazz the Clown!







Sheringham Park Trip

On Thursday 14th July we went on a trip to Sheringham Park. We were all aboard the bus at 10.15am and children who were not in session were invited to join us with their parent/carer in Sheringham. Rob Coleman and his wonderful team of volunteers met us off of the bus and took us to the 'The Bower', a beautiful educational area.

The children took part in pond dipping.


We identified lots of the differing types of life found in the pond.



on a bug hunt, look at what we discovered!



We observed bees in the wildflower garden.



Afterwards we used our art skills to craft our very own bees on sticks.


And we had races with them.


A wonderful time was had by all.

A busy few weeks

We have been very busy exploring our 'big school' role play area.




Making musical instruments.


Gardening in our garden centre.



Finding different numbers on the till at the garden centre.


Practicing the egg and spoon race for sports day.



And after all of that hard work we made some bread rolls that didn't quite make it home as they smelt too delicious, so we ate them for our snack.

Den Week

We decided that for Den Day, in aid of Save the Children, we would challenge ourselves to build a den a day! See below for pictures of our fantastic creations! 

We thought about materials and how we could make our dens comfortable.




We also made some Dens at Forest School.






Here we are using our dark den to explore different types of torches.


We made sure that we kept our energy levels up and made some house shaped biscuits to take home with us.

The Beach

On Tuesday the 24th of May 16 Year 6's from Nothrepps Primary gave us a 'Beach Safety' talk. They warned us of hazards on the beach and gave us top tips to keep safe.


And in the afternoon we were invited to Overstrand beach to practice our beach safety alonside Oak class. It was our first time on a minibus.


We explored the beach safely.












And what better way to end a trip to the beach than with an ice cream!
