Rowland Hill Nursery School & Children's Centre

Bird project

This half term the children have been working on a bird project with our resident artist. We started by looking for different types of birds in the garden, using binoculars, and then using a guidebook to name the different species. We have made bird feeders to encourage a range of birds into our garden.

During the project we have also been exploring the use of natural resources such as clay, acorns and sticks to make houses for the birds to live in. This has helped to support the children's creativity and to further develop their motor skills. The intent is that the sculptures will then be displayed in our garden to help support its development.
