This week Little Birds have been learning about people who help us in our community.

We have started to look at the different occupations in the story book ‘Real Superheroes’.

We were all fascinated by the real stethoscopes and enjoyed playing imaginatively in the role play area as doctors. We learnt about the role of doctors, nurses and paramedics.

Two young Nursery pupils are pictured playing together with a stethoscope, as part of their learning about 'Real Superheroes'.

We made ambulances out of coloured shaped card pieces and collage materials. This enhanced our expressive arts and design.

A young girl is seen gluing different coloured sheets of paper together with a glue stick during class.

We also sang songs connected with doctors, for example ‘Miss Polly had a dolly’ and ‘Five little monkeys jumping on the bed’.

Little Birds spoke to the ‘Miss Polly’ doll and our peers about how to keep safe at home and explained which grown ups help us if we are feeling unwell.

We improved our communication and understanding of health and self care.
