🩷💘Happy Valentine’s Day!💘🩷
💌Here at Monkey Puzzle, we wanted to spread the love! We have spent the week making hearts to hand out to people in the local community to make them smile! 💌
10 of our preschoolers set off with 28 hearts to hand out to local shop owners and passers-by! It was so lovely to see the children be so generous and to truly understand the meaning of giving to others out of the kindness of their hearts. 🩷
We were so thrilled to be able to make people smile! In a world where you can be anything, be kind🌏💕
We wish you all a very happy Valentines Day with those you love most 🐵🩷

📋Scavenger hunt📋
Today our Discoverers went on an outing to see if they could find various items on their scavenger hunt list! The children were thrilled to see dogs, cats, buses, cars, shops and traffic lights, we were able to check everything off our list! ✅
The children were really aware of the world around them, and loved waving hello to the friendly passers-by! 👋
We finished our outing by stopping off into the local Library to read a few books about the animals we had seen along the way, and even bumped into one of the Discoverers team, Bev, on her day off! 🥰
What a lovely trip out, we cannot wait for our next one!🐵❤️

Shannon has been nominated due to her continuous hard work and effort in supporting every room as a Senior Room Leader, taking on new tasks, always willing to get involved and supporting the team to a very high standard. Shannon is super flexible in her job role and we would be very lost without her!❤
Ruby is one of our amazing practitioners and has been nominated for working so hard within the investigators room, particularly doing a duo lingo course in her own time to support one of her key children who has English as an additional language! Ruby always works so hard to create exciting activities and find new ways to engage the children ❤

❤️👶🏻Explorers outing👶🏻❤️
Today, some of our youngest friends in the Nursery popped into Tunbridge Wells town to do some sightseeing and to get a feel for the community around them. Along the way, we saw lots of of buses (how exciting!) and of course stopped to look at our favourite artwork and make some animal sounds! 🏡🐱🐶
The Tunbridge Wells community are so welcoming to the children, and always stop to wave, say hello and comment about how lovely our Monkey Puzzle hi-vis jackets are! It is so lovely to see some shopkeepers and builders recognise us from our weekly walks and come out to say hello, we are so lucky to be in the heart of such a special community. 👋🦺
We finished off by stopping outside Stampede to see our posters proudly displayed in their windows, in support of Children’s Mental Health Week. 🧠

Our Pre-school committee, made up by 8 of our pre-schoolers, recently voted to create a Dinosaur World at the bottom of their garden! The team worked really hard to create such an amazing environment, with so many provocations to play. 🪨🍃

Such a cute activity
👟Today some of our Investigators popped into town to visit Stampede, a local shoe shop!👟
We had to stop off along the way to admire to beautiful art work, and loved taking turns to spot the green man at the crossings!🚦
When we arrived at Stampede, we handed over our posters that we had made to support Children’s Mental Health Awarness Week.🧠 This shoe shop was like no other, and had the most amazing facilities for the children! The investigators certainly enjoyed exploring the role play area and made lots of tea and cake, along with being excellent till assistants and ringing up orders!☕️🍰
Before we left, some of us took turns to have our feet measured and it was so interesting to see all the different sized feet we have👣
Thank-you so much to Stampede for making us so welcome, we had such a special morning out🐵
