Ducklings had a great day celebrating #worldbookday2025 books and biscuits in the sunshine, inspiring us to create our own books @satrust_ #nursery #readingforpleasure #writing #rise #inspire #success

Cygnets enjoyed celebrating @WorldBookDayUK. They all Looked amazing in their masks that represented their favourite books. We made our own bookmarks and loved sharing our books with the children from Year 4. @satrust_ #worldbookday2025 #RISE

We would like to wish a very Happy Ramadan to all our Highfields families celebrating! #RISE #Respect 🌙✨☺️@satrust_

Cygnets rose to the challenge this week in PE, by working hard on their throwing and catching skills. #RISE #Success #EYFS @satrust_

This week in Kingfishers, the children have worked on their interviewing skills as part of an English lesson @satrust_ #RISE

Wow, what an experience! We took a group of children to Birmingham to sing in the Young Voices Choir. We were inspired by all the fabulous singers and musicians and had an amazing time! @satrust_ #inspire #RISE #youngvoices

Thank you Notts + Derby buses, we see your bus outside our school everyday and the children always ask if they can go on it and today your generosity made their wish come true. We had a great time and it definitely enriched our day @satrust_ #enrichment #nursery #rise

This week in Kingfishers the children have been testing out their catapult designs @satrust_

Counting, crackers and classic cartoons all helped us to listen carefully for our sound of the week. Some of us also heard it in curry and cake that we had for lunch, we are getting so good at listening for our initial sounds @satrust_ @LettersSounds #phonics #nursery

Cygnets enjoyed their end of half-term treat, where they tasted a variety of exotic fruits linked to our story Handa’s Surprise. #Senses #FruitTasting #HandasSurprise #EYFS #RISE @satrust_

For #SaferInternetDay we created our own tablets, suddenly symbols popped up on them that shouldn’t be there. Discussing this we learnt if this ever happened to us we have to stop and tell an adult. We then learnt a song to help us remember #smartiepenguin #nursery @satrust_

Cygnets had a fantastic #balanaceability session today. They enjoyed balancing and manoeuvring the bikes around the hall, gaining essential skills and building confidence! Thanks to #GetActive #SouthDerbyshire #RISE #Inspire #Success #EYFS @satrust_

Cygnets have enjoyed taking part in lots of number based activities for @NSPCC Number Day #NSPCCNUMBERDAY @satrust_ #RISE #EYFS

Kingfishers have enjoyed celebrating Number Day 2025 today with lots of maths learning! @satrust_

It was inspiring having a parent come into nursery today to share her role as a dental nurse. She shared with us how to look after our teeth. We got to be a dentist using a mirror to check Duncan’s teeth and then practised our brushing skills @satrust_ #eyfs #inspire #rise

On Tuesday, Mrs Mughal-Martin our Mental Health Lead launched Children's Mental Health Week by delivering an assembly with our EMPATHY leaders. We talked about all the things we have at Highfields to support children's mental health.

This week Miss Mok delivered a fantastic assembly on Lunar New Year and was assisted by some of our amazing students. We found out how some of our families celebrate this festival and about the similarities between Lunar New Year and Christmas. @satrust_ #RISE #Empathy #Respect

Cygnets have immersed themselves in lots of Lunar New Year activities following on from our Lunar New Year story. @satrust_ #RISE #LunarNewYear #EYFS

We have enjoyed learning about how people celebrate Lunar New Year today. Our friend shared her special clothes, we tasted food, made special money bags and created our own dragon dance. Happy Lunar New Year 🐍 @satrust_ #lunarnewyear #eyfs #nursery #celebrations

We loved visiting our local shop today. We explored the shelves looking for the items we needed and those we would have liked, used our money to pay and took them back to school. The staff of Highfields Coop were so welcoming @satrust_ @coopuk #nursery #community #eyfs
