Over the last 9 weeks we have enjoyed a weekly session of Debutots. In these sessions we dip our tiny toes into the world of stories, words and sounds. The children delight in a multi-sensory blend of storytelling, puppets, bubbles and music. Each week activities are sent home so that parents can explore the story at home too!
Wake Up Spring! Topic
In this topic we have ben learning all about Spring and growth! We have enjoyed spring cleaning our home corner and planting different seeds in Forest School. We have found out about the importance of recycling and how we can help at school and home. We have also loved talking about when we were a baby and how much we have grown!

Nursery Rhyme Time Topic
What a busy start to November we have had here at Knockbreda Nursery School! We have had a visit form the ‘World of Owls’ where we held some amazing creatures including a ghost snake, bearded dragon and a very famous owl! 🐍🦉🐉The children really enjoyed our first school visitor and were very brave! We then learnt all about different nursery rhymes and took part in the Nursery Rhyme Week, where we learnt a new rhyme each day! Children in Need rounded off our topic and we raised a whopping £210! Thank you all very much for your generous donations .⭐
