🍁 Autumn Adventures at Nursery! 🍂

9th Oct 2025

This week we wrapped up warm and headed out on an autumn adventure around our school grounds! The children loved spotting all the beautiful colours of the season — bright reds, golden yellows, and crunchy brown leaves everywhere! 🍃

They collected their favourite leaves, twigs, and other autumn treasures to bring back to class. We talked about the shapes, sizes, and textures of what we found — and there was lots of excitement every time someone discovered a really big leaf!

Back inside, we used our collections to make leaf rubbings with crayons. The children were amazed to see the leaf patterns appear like magic on their paper. 🎨

It was a lovely way to explore nature, use our senses, and get creative — all while learning about the changing seasons. Well done to all our little nature explorers! 🌰🍂
