We would like to say a big thank you to all our children and parents who dressed in denim today and donated to the charity ‘Jeans for Genes’ we have raised just over £100!!

Sports Day at THNS! Children at THNS enjoyed taking part in speedy superhero races, the great bucket and water challenge and wheelie races. We were grateful to be able to use the field at Whitehorse Manor. Thank you to staff and families for supporting the children today.

This week the children had a very exciting experience! On Wednesday we went over to Whitehorse Manor Primary School and watched a play about Goldilocks and the Three Bears. After the performance, the children were encouraged by the actors to participate in a drama workshop, where they learnt how to act out different fairy tale characters. We all had a fantastic time watching the story that we have been learning about from a book come to life in front of our eyes!

Over the last two weeks we have been very excited to welcome ten fertilised chicken eggs to the nursery. The children have been predicting which egg might hatch first and some tally mark surveys were carried out by the children. Then last Thursday egg number seven hatched with the other soon following. The children have been fascinated to watch the pipping and hatching process. This week the children have all had the opportunity to handle the chicks and today we said goodbye to them as they were taken back to the farm. This has been a very interesting and informative experience for the children.

This week, to help support and raise awareness of mental health issues, both parents and staff at THNS have been engaged in the art of Mindfulness! Thanks to our Mindfulness expert, Sue Bolton, those families who attended reported many positive effects that the workshops have had on their ability to fend off the stresses and anxieties of modern day life. A huge thank you to all of our families and staff members who supported the workshops and Mental Health Week as a whole!

A big thank you to all our parents who participated in Den Day raising money for Save The Children. You all created some amazing dens with your children using boxes and materials. The children had a lot of fun building and playing in their dens, they also gained valuable construction skills from this experience.
