The Doctor's Surgery

We have been learning about people who work in the community and people who serve the community in our SESE lessons. Our play theme was based on these lessons over the past few weeks.
In the role play area we set up a doctor's surgery. We took turns taking on the roles of doctors, nurses, receptionists and patients. The doctors and nurses were kept very busy as the patients presented with a number of illnesses. The doctors examined the patients and wrote prescriptions for medicine. The nurses bandaged a number of wounds and gave injections when needed. The receptionists were also very busy making appointments and ensuring that patients were comfortable in the waiting room.

In the small world station we used puppets and dolls in our toy hospital.

In construction we built a number of hospitals, fire stations, surgeries and schools.
