This week at Regent Terrace we had more of our lovely parents come in to the setting to speak to the children about what they do for work and how they help people.

We had a scientist come in and speak to us about how he makes medicine and he spoke about why medicine is important and how he tests different chemicals together to see what happens. We also had a lovely opportunity to see him do a science experiment and get the children involved in the process.

We also had a teacher come in and speak to us about why teachers are so important, she spoke about what she does at the school and how she teaches adults as well. She also shared the importance of education.

People who help us!

Last week we had some of our lovely parents come in and speak about what they do for work. We have had a doctor come in and speak to us about what she does for work and how she helps people. The children also had a lovely opportunity to get involved by exploring and trying out some of the doctor tools, such as listening to people heart beats, using bandages and putting them on others and of course looking after the babies as well as reading lots of books on doctors.

We also had someone come in who played the piano for us and did a music session for the children, the children listened to the lovely music and did some amazing dancing too. The children also had the opportunity to play the piano.

We are very excited to see more parents come visit us and speak about what they do and how they help our community.

Benefits of being located in central Cambridge is that we can go on lots of outings and explore our local community. Today our preschoolers went on a nature walk where they collected lots of natural resources for our loose parts station. The children also spoke about road safety and how we safely cross the road. The children also visited our local shops and bough some delicious strawberries to share with their peers when back at nursery.

"As children observe, reflect, record, and share nature's patterns and rhythms, they are participating in a process that promotes scientific and ecological awareness, problem solving, and creativity." - Deb Matthews Hensley

This week at Regent Terrace we have been exploring the topic "people who help us" The children have been exploring a variety of occupations that people do that help others. We explored and discussed that Doctors "make us feel better and give us medicine", Fire Fighters "put out fires", Police Officers "keep us safe and put bad people in jail", we spoke how teachers "teach us new things and look after children", Dentists look after our teeth and make them better if they hurt. We spoke about many other people who help us such as Vets and Postman. The children also had a discussion that their parents take care of them and make sure that they are always safe and happy.

We are also very excited for Thursday where one of our lovely parents are going to come in and speak about her role as a Doctor and how she helps others.
