This week we have had two parents come and talk to us about how they help people in their jobs. Our first visitor was Erin's mum who is training to be a nurse. Erin's mum let us use her stethoscope to listen to our hearts and put a clip on our thumbs to measure our heart rate. She also bandaged…

Little Chicks loved the visit from Police Officers Emma and Charlie. They were very keen to jump into the back of the Police van, try all the different police hats and helmets on and coat. Elsie volunteered to be handcuffed by Emma and there was great excitement when the lights and siren were set…

The children have had another exciting day, with a visit from Emma and Charlie from Fleetwood Police Station! They brought their special van to show us and some of the equipment they use. We tried on some of the uniform and helmets and got to go in the back of the van!

What a thoroughly wet day we've had for our outdoor learning day! But we braved the weather in our puddlesuits and wellies and went on a welly walk to see what we could find. All the rain had made the path muddy, we decided it was like the mud in the bear hunt story! We squelch squerched through…

It has been yet another busy but productive day today. The children have been showing us how well they can walk up and downstairs, carving out a pumpkin to create a home in our small world, recognising our names, writing and copying our names, hole punching and threading leaves and recognising…
