Some great tips on how to stay safe and cool in this glorious sunshine ☀️Warm temperatures forecast over next two days! How to stay safe...
Most of us welcome the hot weather, but there can be health risks such as dehydration, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Everyone can be affected but the most vulnerable people are older people, young children and people with existing health conditions.
Babies are particularly vulnerable to overheating, visit NHS website for information on how to keep your baby safe during hot weather: orlo.uk/mK7zW
Tops Tips on how to protect yourself and others during hot weather:
• Shut windows and pull down the shades when it is hotter outside. Open the windows for ventilation when it is cooler.
• Avoid the heat: stay out of the sun and don't go out between 11am and 3pm (the hottest part of the day) if you're vulnerable to the effects of heat.
• Have cool baths or showers, and splash yourself with cool water.
• Drink plenty of fluids and avoid excess alcohol.
• Plan ahead to make sure you have enough supplies, such as food, water and any medications you need.
• Identify the coolest room in the house or at work so you know where to go to keep cool.
• Wear loose, cool clothing, and a hat and sunglasses if you go outdoors.
• Check up on people who may be less able to look themselves

Children are More Than A Score - please share...Testing 4-year-olds in English and maths would be madness in any school year but now, more than ever, it would be completely wrong.
It’s the last thing children, teachers and heads need. They don’t want these meaningless tests, and they certainly don’t want them in the coming school year. Only the government is stuck in reverse, stubbornly ignoring Covid-19 and insisting that they go ahead.
Send the government Department for Education Nick Gibb and Gavin Williamson a virtual postcard by sharing this post. And don’t forget to sign our petition: buff.ly/2OyaN2M
Let’s put a stop to baseline testing once and for all.

May 8 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of VE Day, which was the day towards the end of World War Two when fighting against Nazi Germany came to an end in Europe. VE Day, which stands for Victory in Europe Day, is a bank holiday in the UK, replacing the usual Early May Bank holiday Monday. In previous years, VE Day has been celebrated with street parties, community gatherings and services of thanksgiving. This year, because of the coronavirus pandemic and the UK’s lockdown restrictions, the previously planned celebrations for the 75th anniversary will not be able to go ahead and the day will look slightly different that originally intended.
Despite the restrictions however, VE Day celebrations will still go ahead. To allow people to mark the day from the safety of their homes, a two minute silence has been planned for 11am, followed by a ‘toast to heroes’ at 3pm.
The Queen will also make a speech, addressing the nation once again from Windsor Castle at 9pm, which is the same time 75 years ago that her father, King George VI, gave a radio address to mark the end of the fighting with Germany in 1945. The general public are also being encouraged to throw ‘Stay At Home Street Parties’ instead of the traditional neighbourhood gatherings.
The idea behind a VE Day Stay At Home Street Party is that people can still celebrate the day with their neighbours whilst observing social distancing and staying at home. Organisers are encouraging the public to decorate the outside of their homes in red, white and blue, bunting and flags to mark the occasion, so that whole streets are adorned in the nation’s colours. This way, neighbours can enjoy the visual spectacle of national pride from their windows or during their one hour of exercise per day.
People are also being encouraged to forgo group gatherings for afternoon tea and picnics and instead hold a smaller celebration in the garden or on a doorstep with your household. Think mini sandwiches, cakes, scones with jam and cream and a good old cup of tea.
If you need inspirations, more ideas, recipes or tips on how to throw your own VE Day Stay At Home Street Party, the government have set up a website dedicated to providing you with a full toolkit of resources at ve-vjday75.gov.uk. ... See moreSee less

Broadstone Christian Nursery have invested in a new mark making sensory board. Sensory play includes activities that stimulate children’s senses such as sight, sound, smell, taste or touch. As children explore sensory materials they develop their sense of touch. This lays the foundation for learning other skills, such as identifying objects by touch and using fine and gross motor skills. Mark making also develops the creation of different patterns, lines, textures and shapes. Here are some activities that the children have been involved in over the last few weeks:
- mark making sensory board
- mark making
- matching shapes
- making patterns with shapes
- independently looking at books
- role play with the shopping till and enjoying a tea party

Children’s food preferences and eating habits are formed early in life and the time that they spend in early years settings provides an ideal opportunity to shape healthy behaviours. Broadstone Christian Nursery work closely with CaterFirst who supply the children's hot lunches.

They love nothing more than getting hands on at the allotment and developing their gardening skills!

This September the new Ofsted Inspection Framework comes into force. Broadstone Christian Nursery was approached by the South West Senior HMI to be a pilot setting for them. Although no formal report the experience was invaluable and so was the feedback.
Quality of Education, Personal Development, Behaviour and Attitudes are key areas in Ofsted. Our feedback was very positive:
“High Quality Inclusive Practice, high expectations for behaviour, strong key persons who know the children very well, activities linked to child’s interest and provide rich experiences that broaden their knowledge and skills. Children are confident, independent, eager, motivated, happy, secure and take pride in their achievements. The impact of what we do at the nursery has a positive effect on the children and families.”

2019 Graduates
It is once again that time of year when we have to say not farewell but keep in touch to all our school leavers who are moving onto school in September. Come back and see us and tell us how you are getting on – it’s always nice to know.
We will miss you all and feel privileged to have been part of their Early Educational years and helping to develop skills for life.
We are all so proud of their achievements and know that the children will do well as they have a real ‘thirst’ for learning.
Transition to school isn’t always easy as every child is different and the support they need is too. Visits to school, teachers coming into nursery, stories about school, photos of their new environment, school uniforms to dress up in plus more all go to help make the transition a little smoother.
Good luck class of 2019! ... See moreSee less

Physical activity guidelines for EARLY YEARS (UNDER 5s) state that children of pre-school age who are capable of walking unaided should be physically active daily for at least 180 minutes (3 hours), spread throughout the day.
Our upcoming annual Sports Day will include lots of the main activities that are encouraged like running, skipping, jumping and chasing.
So what are the benefits of being active for at least 180 minutes each day?
- Improves cardiovascular health
- Contributes to a healthy weight
- Improves bone health
- Supports learning of social skills
- Develops movement and co-ordination
Physical development involves providing opportunities for young children to be active and interactive; and to develop their co-ordination, control, and movement.

Today is National Sunglasses Day
Children are exposed to more annual sun exposure than adults because many of their activities are outdoor-based, including school breaks, PE and playtime. This increased exposure to sunlight also increases children’s exposure to damaging ultraviolet (UV) light – an invisible, electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun. Children’s eyes differ from adults’ in that children’s ocular lenses cannot filter UV light and prevent it from reaching their retinas as effectively as can adults’ ocular lenses. This results in children’s retinas being exposed to more UV light and susceptible to retinal damage if they are not adequately protected.
Excessive exposure to UV light can lead to both short-term and long-term eye problems. Protect their eyes from damaging rays! #NationalSunglassesDay find out more by visiting: nationalsunglassesday.com/sunglasses/uv-and-children/
