Last week, 4th–10th May: Children’s Book Week 📚 S Last week,  4th–10th May: Children’s Book Week 📚 Startwell 

Children’s Book Week celebrates the joy of reading and highlights how important it is for children’s development.

At our School Readiness Stay and Play sessions, we brought stories to life using our active story sheets, combining storytelling with fun physical movements alongside Sammy Skills. 

It’s a great way to support learning, build confidence, and show that reading for pleasure can be active, engaging, and fun!

Let’s take a look at all the exciting activities f Let’s take a look at all the exciting activities from our Mini Springers Nursery ✨ @mini_springers 

Our Sunflower children have been learning about the life cycles of butterflies. They have enjoyed watching our caterpillars turn into cocoons, and every day they eagerly check to see if our butterflies have emerged yet!🦋

Also, last week we started reading the story " Owl Babies, " and we focused on learning about different sizes of the owls and objects that were small, medium and big.🦉

✨ Let’s see what was on at our School Readiness St ✨ Let’s see what was on at our School Readiness Stay and Play session! Startwell 

International Dance Day was a wonderful opportunity to explore different musical genres with the children. They responded so well to a variety of rhythms, beats, and styles, making it a fun and engaging way to support their development. Music and movement supported their physical skills while also encouraging self-expression, creativity, and emotional well-being.

During our school readiness stay-and-play session, we linked in 180 Katie, encouraging the children to get their bodies moving, raise their heart rates, and feel their hearts go “boom boom boom!”

It was also a great reminder that children need 180 minutes of physical activity each day. For those aged 3–5, this includes at least 60 minutes of high-intensity activity alongside 120 minutes of low- to moderate-intensity movement.
