Today Rockers and Rollers Day Nursery is 6 years old 🙂
Well it’s that time of year again where we send our school leavers off for their next big adventure. It’s such as honour to be able to see our children grow and learn in preparation for school. It is always an emotional time, as we have such lovely bonds not only with the children, but with the families.
To celebrate our children’s successes while they have been with us we had a party, and as usual we invited Uncle Ron along to provide some entertainment and how fantastic he was too.
Well we didn’t want to miss out on all the Festival fun, so on Friday the whole nursery got into the festival spirit by putting on our black bin bag coats and wellie boots and went out in the garden for fun in the rain. We had tents, stages, music for Dolly, apple juice and of course lots of MUD!
Both children and adults had a brilliant time!

We have now introduced a new online learning journal for all our children at Rockers and Rollers.
This great new feature means staff are able to do observation on the children via iPads and the load straight on to each child’s secure online learning journals, then parents and relatives get an email, so they are able to instantly view the observation and write comments. Parents can also make observations from home.
We have had some great feedback from our parents so far.

In our role play areas we have enjoyed pretending to work in a shop, so we asked Tesco if we could come for a visit to see what a real supermarket was like.
We all got to have a look around the shop and see what things you could buy. We saw how the bread was made….and even got to have a try. We got to look at the warehouse and even went upstairs.
All the children have enjoyed taking part in planting activities over the last couple of weeks. We have created a very exciting new herb garden with all different sorts of herbs for the children to smell. Ronnie has been using them to make some yummy dinners.
We have also started planting our vegetables, we are watering them every day, it’s very exciting to see them grow. We can’t wait to taste them.
