Thank you to our families for donating lots of shoes and pencil cases so that children in The Gambia can go to school . #walkadayinmyshoes with @NurseryinBelong

In the play dough kitchen the children made their own dough & took on different roles, complete with taking orders! Lots of creativity, teamwork, and fantastic communication through playful learning @CherryGrovePS

Today, the children made banana smoothies using our new Nutribullet. The activity was very well received. The children also labelled their bottles using phonics, supporting early literacy skills alongside practical learning. @CherryGrovePS

Watching children explore tools like hand saws, a garlic press, a screwdriver, and even a pasta machine. All that twisting, squeezing & turning = strong finger muscles and confident little hands in the making! @CherryGrovePS

Our Reception class had a lovely visit to the local bakery today. The children practised safe walking, polite communication, and purchasing their own treats with the bakers. So much happy, hands-on learning! @CherryGrovePS

Today the children enjoyed observational drawing of plants 🌱They looked closely at shape, colour and detail, developing fine motor skills, careful observation, and early scientific thinking. Learning to slow down, notice more, and record what they see. @CherryGrovePS

Today the children made Christmas baubles. They peeled old crayons, sharpened and collected the wax shavings. Great for fine motor skills! We then filled the baubles & watched the magic of melting happen. Observing changes&asking questions. Real science in action!@CherryGrovePS

We are so grateful to our local community for donating Christmas presents and hampers to our families . Thank you #audaciouschurch #georgeschippyblacon

Over 40 children chose to spend a sunny lunch break writing Christmas cards to Grand-friends at our local care home . Heartwarming stuff ! @LovettCare #grosvenormanor #intergenerational

We are proud to announce that we received the @CYC_youngcarers Bronze Award at Tuesday’s ceremony at Eaton Park. Together we’re building a more compassionate and inclusive community ! If you feel your child might be a carer, please contact Mrs Hughes for information 🍒

Our poem of the week inspired our art too! 🎨🖤 Using cotton buds, the children drew and screen printed their own dark, dark houses — they were so excited to see their prints appear! Such creative, hands-on learning! 🏠✨ @CherryGrovePS

🧙‍♀️ Outdoor magic in action! Our little witches took their broomsticks outside for some large-scale broom painting 🧹🎨 Big movements, big giggles, & brilliant gross motor fun. Strengthening muscles, coordination, & creativity under the autumn sky! @CherryGrovePS
