Nursery visit to Marazion

Today, Nursery visited Marazion Beach to link to our learning about creatures, habitats and our local environment. We had an exciting trip on the minibus to get there and the children behaved fantastically, making lots of people smile by being so polite and friendly.

We started by meeting Kerry, from St Michael’s Mount, who spoke to us about the most common litter that is found at Marazion. The children were great at identifying which items belong on the beach and which do not! Equipped with gloves, grabbers and bags, the children then eagerly took part in our beach clean, collecting lots of litter and comparing the interesting items that we found.

After our beach clean, we then enjoyed our lunch with a beautiful sea view followed by a play on the sand. The children built sandcastles, searched for shells and we even had some sand angels!

We then had a lovely time on the park with the children really enjoying the rope bridges, pirate ship and slides! We had a fab day and there were lots of sleepy children on the coach home!
