Bybrook Pre-School

Humphrey has been a busy bear today.. With the help of an adult, he melted some chocolate to make chocolate crispy cakes yum yum. He's also been practicing recognising the letters of his name. We wrote the letters on the pegs and Humphrey had to match them to his name. Good work Humphrey!! This is one of favourite activities that we like to do at preschool 😊

A little hello from Jane and Bobby x

A little message from Alison.. her sweetcorn has sprouted!!
I put a bit of compost in each of the little pots, put one sweet corn seed called a kernel in each pot, covered them with a bit more compost and watered everything. Two days later these green shoots appeared. I have given it water every day - not too much. And very soon I am going to put them into bigger pots so they can grow bigger. Then when there are no more frosts at night I’m going to plant them outside. At then end of summer each plant might have a corn on the cob on it. x

Feeling crafty today??? Humphrey has been decorating eggs!! (Boiled first of course) Here he is with Rapunzel. Maybe you could decorate an egg too!! 😊

We've just been off for a listening walk, Humphrey closed his eyes and told me that he could hear birds. When you next go for a walk, stop, close your eyes and listen carefully. Let me know what you hear. Humphrey has also been busy in the back garden making nature picture with all the different things that he found.. He even found a Bybrook Rock!! Thank you Humphrey for a lovely day x

Water play today for Humphrey, he's been outside all morning painting the fence. Such a clever bear x
