It has been a fab year in Nursery! We have been busy making friends and developing our speaking and listening skills. We have had so much fun playing indoors, outdoors and exploring in our garden. The children have loved playing with playdough, making things out of junk modelling and messy play! Recently, we had a great time doing our sports day, class parties and our assembly! We know our nursery children are so ready for Reception, they are all SUPERSTARS!!! We wish them all the best going forward. Thank you to all the parents for your ongoing support. It means so much to us. We will miss all of the children from Nursery.

A polite reminder that the last day of summer term is Friday 19th July at 2pm. Have a wonderful safe, peaceful and happy holiday.

All the best,

Nursery Team

Along with our daily lessons, in Reception we learn through play. We have lots of independent learning activities to choose from…

Have a look at some of the things we do…

Threading helps our fine motor skills.

Building a tall tower using the giant Lego. How tall are you? Are you taller, shorter or the same as the tower?

We made houses for our small world toys. 

Our reading area is a space to enjoy many different books, together or independently. Do you have a favourite book?

We love using our Octons to construct and create.

Imaginative play builds our social and communication skills.

We like playing Teachers. Miss Ellery and Ms Kelleher even let us use their teacher things!

As we are getting ready for Year 1, we have been taking our learning to the tables. This will help us get prepared for next year!

Exploring colour and colour mixing in the creative area.

The writing area is a busy and fun place to be. It’s definitely a big hit! We use our Grow the Code display to write our words.

Even our outdoor area boasts a lively writing table. We spend so much time here – working together and independently.

 

We work and play alongside and with our friends. We share, take turns, talk and ask each other lots of questions.

We love having visitors so if you would like to come and see our learning, please arrange a visit with the school office!

Goodbye for now,

The Reception Team

The children will be meeting their new class teacher this Wednesday @10.30am where they will spend one hour in their new classroom. This is an exciting opportunity for the children to get to know more about their new teachers and find out what their new classroom will look like.

Thank you,

EYFS Team

While the weather is hot can I please remind parents to dress your child in appropriate clothing. No tights, jumpers or cardigans please. The children can bring in a sun hat into school and please ensure that they come into school with SPF sun cream applied at home. Please ensure they bring in a water bottle. If you need help with any of the items, we may be able to offer help. Please speak to a member of staff from the nursery team.

Thank you in advance,

The Nursery Team

 

 

Dear Parents,

Next week on Friday 5th July the children will be taking part in diversity day. Your child can wear their own clothes and show off their individuality. We will also have a picnic outside and the children can bring in their own snacks, traditional food and drinks.

Thank you,

The Nursery Team
