Throughout the year, the Year 2 children have enjoyed further developing their fine motor skills through lots of exciting activities, such as Cheerios challenges, using tweezers and printing to name just a few. This week we decided to improve our fine motor skills by threading patterns on the fences outside. The area is looking really colourful, and the children have shown great dexterity. The children are looking forward to more exciting physical activities over the next few weeks.

Building Bridges.

The nursery children used their problem solving skills today to build bridges across the construction area.

Gwaith da nursery! Think we have some future engineers!

The children are now all in their rooms for some free time before lights out.
Tomorrow we finish the trip with climbing, archery and skiing.

Before going home we got to eat our dinner in the stands and even sung Calon Lan!

Using materials that were available to them in our outdoor area they made their own musical instruments. Some of the children found stones to bang together, others used sticks and leaves. Working together in small groups they used their natural instruments to compose a piece of music which they then performed to their friends.
