On Thursday last week the nursery children nominated their favourite names for the ducklings and we voted for the five best names.  The ducklings are called: Fluffy, Donald, Bitey, Cinderelly and Robbie.  Over the week the ducklings have changed and grown so much and we have been discussing the changes.

“They have flippers so they can swim”, Alice said.

“Some of them have purple beaks”, Tess said.

“They are getting feathers”, Abdullah said.

On Monday the ducklings had their first swim, at first they paddled in the water then the smallest duck started diving under the water and soon all the ducks were diving.  It was very exciting.  See the photo of us all pretending to swim like the ducklings!

At the end of the term the ducklings will go to live at Kentish Town City Farm.  If you would like to visit them please go to visit the farm, here is a link to the website.  We are very grateful to John from the farm for all his help with the ducklings.
