There were exciting opportunities at every turn for children at Cedars Day Nursery in Leighton Buzzard as they showcased their skills during a special Sports Day at the setting.
Welcoming their proud families for the event, Ladybirds children from the award-winning day nursery on Mentmore Road were delighted to try a series of sporting activities for the first time, including hurdles, obstacle courses, ring toss games and the egg and spoon race.
Together, children worked in teams to follow the rules and learn new techniques, all whilst building on their motor skills, balance, hand-eye co-ordination and self-esteem.
To further the learning experience, children spoke about the importance of staying safe in the sun and taking care of their bodies through a balanced diet and physical activity.
Cedars Day Nursery Team Leader, Tatjana Bacholdina explained;
“We had a fantastic time at Sports Day with our lovely nursery families. Every child was a winner and they showed incredible sportsmanship and encouraged their friends every step of the way. They cheered each other on and showed great team spirit throughout.”
We prioritise the importance of outdoor play at Cedars Day Nursery in Leighton Buzzard. All children at our Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ nursery have access to our large, natural garden area on a daily basis as we recognise the impact that being outdoors has on a child’s social, emotional and physical development. The children enjoy planting vegetables and tasting their produce, served by our dedicated Nursery Chef.
