Welcome to the Old Bear room, we operate a key worker system in the Old Bear room, where we spend time with and bond with our key children, this helps the children to feel valued and helps make new relationships.

We love messy activities in the Old Bear Room such as gluing, painting, gloop, dough, sand and water play. We also enjoy quiet time when we have stories, singsongs and nursery rhyme time, during these quiet times we can start to learn our colours, shapes, numbers and even the alphabet ready for when we move onto the Jolly Tall room.

We follow the EYFS Framework and every day carry out activities that relate to our monthly topics and
You can always find our lovely work displayed on the walls within our room.

Outdoor play is always fun, we really enjoy playing with the balls, hoops, bikes and scooters and we go outside whatever the weather.

Mealtimes are an important part of our day and are an opportunity for us to develop our social skills and manners. We all together around the table with staff, and are encouraged to use knives and forks and our manners!

We have a great time the Old Bear room joining in with all the fun and enjoyable and learning activities that take place.
