Outdoor play and hall time⚽️
The children love to play in the hall which is located in school, they use big and small movements whilst in there. We pretend to be lots of different animals, vehicles and insects, we like to move our bodies by crawling, jumping, hopping, twirling, and running. This promotes imaginative play, making relationships, communication and language and physical development.
