Book of the month.....We're going on a Bear Hunt
The nursery have been busy in reading and enjoying the book 'We're going on a Bear Hunt.' Each room has been doing different activities using themes from the book. They have been on a bear hunt walk, making a paper mâché bear and measuring the bears height...took a look!
Avon Valley Maize Maze
Puffins joined the Keynsham nursery and travelled to Avon Valley's Maize Maze. They all had a fantastic time exploring the maze (whilst trying not to get lost) and they even brought back some sweetcorn.
Betty's fundraising
In our July newsletter we announced that Betty would be cutting her hair on 20th August and donating it to the Little Princess Trust. Betty has now cut her hair and has managed to raise an amazing £445! Betty donated 32cm of her hair. Wow! Welcome done Betty.
