This Month is going to be very exciting month for Bolton
School Nursery as we are having lots of work done on our new
landscape garden. Work will commence on the 22nd of August.
We have worked very closely with a landscape garden company and
have come up with some great designs and plans.
All changes made are to enhance all of our children's learning.
Building on individual children's interests, confidence, and
investigative skills. Each child is unique and what better way to
accomodate their learning by enhancing the provision we already
have on offer. Giving them the opportunites to be able to
expand their knowledge, have the confidence and
independence to investigate further.
Please see below for our exciting changes.
This is an overall image of what our outdoor area will look like
once all work has been completed.
Creativity plays huge part in our children's lives. As
each children thrives in our environment their interests and
personalities grow into something quite magical. Musicality is
very popular with many children in our setting, we already aid
this by having extra curricular activities such as Rhythm Time
and Kids Rock. To enhance children's experiences we have
decided to bring the music outdoors giving children the opportunity
to experiment with larger more noiser instruments.
There are also going to be opportunities for children to freely
explore the landscape garden around them with hidden surprises such
as secret tunnels and mirrors, to explore their images or the
reflections of the world in which they play in.
As you can see from both images below and above we are going to
have a secret garden. Children will have the opportunity to feel
they have privacy in their own little play area were "Adults can't
go" This will give children independency, confidence and have fun
in their very own secret garden. (Please note that the area will
not be out of site and adults can observe the area whilst giving
the children their own privacy at the same time.)
The image below shows our gross motor area were children will
have the opportunity to climbing and crawl around, this area also
gives opportunities for den making were children can be
imaginative. We have also brought in the natural elements to our
outdoor area as you can see from our walk throughs we will be
growing our very own plants which will be a variety of floral and
herb plants. This will help children explore thier individual
senses and investigate freely. Children will be growing these with
staff and soon have the enjoyment of watching their plants
grow.
We hope you enjoy our outdoor plans if you have any queries
please do not hesitate to contact us.
