Children in Raindrops and Star Room at Ilminster Avenue Nursery School have spent the first weeks of the year getting to know their key people, learning the daily routines and making new friends.
Through play, conversations and time spent together, children have been building trusting relationships with the adults and with each other. They have been finding out where things are kept, both indoors and outside, and starting to choose what they want to play with.
Each day, children are a little more confident: picking an activity, heading to a favourite area or joining in with the group. The team is looking forward to seeing those friendships and interests grow over the year, in line with Ilminster Avenue’s vision of “Igniting Children’s Passions through Play”.
