This week in Nursery we have been exploring and investigating a whole range of different types of pumpkins and gourds  – all grown locally on Miss Killelay’s allotment.

We have looked closely at Goosebump (bumpy), Polar Bear (white ones) and the traditional Jack o’ Lanterns. The ornamental gourds were fascinating – so knobbly and bumpy.

We have also been practising our scissor skills by cutting up pumpkin playdough into wriggly worms for a witch’s cauldron as well as using a range of art materials to do some observational drawings.
