Rainbow Day

A rainbow of colours,
In the light, after rain.
There are seven of them,
And, each one has a name.

Red is the first
Rainbow colour in the sky.
Orange is next
Like a pumpkin pie.


Yellow is the third,
Lemons come to mind.

Colour four is green,
Think of grassy hills to climb

Blue is colour five,
Like the water in a lake
The sixth is indigo
Blue-grey blends that you can make.

Violet is the colour
Of the last rainbow band.
Violet is flowery;
Like the petals in your hand.

So, wave your arms above you
Cast your colours high
And, try to make a rainbow
Across a cloudy sky

All the children wore their brightest ‘rainbow outfit’ when they visited each of the Nursery classrooms for numerous and diverse “Colour Experiences”. A fantastic day was had by all.
