September 2019
The Great Outdoors…
September has been a busy month here for us at Snapdragons Keynsham! Our final school leavers headed off to school to begin the next chapter of their lives and across the nursery, children have been getting stuck in exploring the garden. We have also been busy fundraising for different events…
Jeans for Genes Day!
We took part in Jeans for Genes Day this year, staff and children came to nursery wearing their favourite denim jeans and items of clothing, all to raise money for children with life-altering genetic disorders. We managed to raise a total of £40 towards the charity.
The Great Outdoors…
The children have really enjoyed exploring the outdoors this month. They have been familiarising themselves with all of our new equipment and exploring their surroundings. The toddlers created their own water slides using coloured water, climbing up the bank and sliding down, using their grown ups for support. The younger toddlers have been creating their own water walls, balancing guttering on wooden stumps and pulling the lever to release the water and watch it flow. Pre-School have been partaking in a spot of bug hunting! Grabbing their magnifying glasses and looking around under logs and stones for different creepy crawlies!
September Snapshot…
Welcome to the World!
We would like to wish a huge congratulations to Alice and James who welcomed their beautiful baby boy Louis Ray James to the world on 7th September, weighing 8lbs 1oz.
We would also like to extend our congratulations to Ella, Head of Early Years Practice, who is expecting her first baby in April 2020!
Nursery News…
We would also like to say a warm welcome to Libby and Celeste who have both joined the Snapdragons team. Libby is a new member of the baby team and Celeste is based in our Dragonfly team. I’m sure you have seen their friendly faces around the nursery.
