Dens and Ducks at Children 1st @ Oakwood - Children 1st Day Nurseries

Dens and Ducks at Children 1st @ Oakwood

Our focus in Early Years recently has been using junk materials to create magical experiences and fire imaginations. After a week of modelling castles, we moved on to den building activities with some great results.

As we have been blessed with beautiful weather, we decided to extend the activity to our outdoor areas. We have created different dens around the nursery grounds. We split off into small groups and each group added their own design to each creation. All the children and team had a brilliant day sparking our creativity and using our imaginations and what better way than to soak up the sunshine by eating outdoors and having fun!

Our Oakwood family was extended recently with the arrival of 2 Khaki Campbell ducks, named Jim and Fred who are 8 weeks old. They came to us from Children 1st @ St. Peter and St. Paul where the children have done a great job, raising them from eggs into the healthy ducklings we see today.

Once they have settled into their forever home, they will be joining our current residing ducks, Daisy and Daphne and will go swimming with them on the pond! The children are very excited about our new arrivals and cannot wait to look after them.

You can see the beautiful ducks and share some our wonderful den building activities by looking through the gallery.
