Caterpillars
This week in Snowy Owls Toftwood we have been watching our caterpillars develop into beautiful butterflies The children have been very excited and today we set them free! One child said “look at them go” another child said “bye butterflies”. Well done Snowy Owls!
Promoting Independence
At our Little Owls settings within Barn Owls we offer our children the opportunity to self serve their very own main meals to promote independence and to get them prepared in time for school.
This is a fantastic opportunity which offers all children a chance to choose what portion size they desire, a choice of toppings and if they would require extra when finishing their meals.
At Barn Owls Scarning this week the children have extended their learning by having open access to play dough and kitchen cutlery. This has allowed the children to practice their cutting skills which then further provides great skill during meal times with support and guidance from their familiar adults.
At Little Owls we pride ourselves in being a setting that helps prepare our pre-school children to feel confident and show great independence in time for school and providing the children with different learning opportunities and outcomes.
