community helpers

Hi Everyone,

It's almost that time of year again and excitement has been building in the classroom. The decorations are going up and we're blasting out the Christmas songs already- It's never going to be a winter wonderland but it's amazing what you can do with a bit of glitter and tinsel! :) Everyone is practising hard for the Christmas show and they all look so cute! Mums and dads, please don't forget to bring in their costumes before the dress rehearsal on Monday if you haven't already done so.
Last week we began our community helpers theme and have had a great time learning about some of the people in our neighbourhood and how they help us. Nursery have really enjoyed pretending to be firefighters, postal workers, doctors, dentists and police officers, and some of the class were eager to share their experiences of trips to the doctor or the dentist (thankfully, nobody has any stories to tell about police stations yet!) Here are just a few of our pics from last week....
