Busy Hands Hard At Work

“Play is the work of children” – Piaget

Play underpins the EYFS and therefore our learning environment provides many opportunities for this. The children build in our construction area, explore their senses during sand and water play, become doctors or shopkeepers in the home corner, share stories in the book corner and mark-make EVERYWHERE! Our Nursery pupils love to draw and write in a range of different activities, every single day. The Little Peris explore shapes and lines with pens, their fingers in sensory play or even painting with cars. The Big Peris are story tellers; they give meaning to their wonderful drawings and share their ideas with one another. They are also perfect role models for their younger peers who want to write letters and draw their mummies just like their big friends.
