Nursery

Welcome to Nursery's Class Page. The Curriculum newsletter below contains all of the information on what the children will be learning this term.

 

This term we will be focusing on the different subjects which are detailed in the Curriculum newsletter. Each subject will be taught during a carpet session and activities set in the classroom and in the outdoor area are linked to their learning.

 

Our aim is for children to develop their social skills, interacting and connecting with each other as well as with the outer world. Curiosity will be developed towards the environment and its natural elements in order to learn to take care and respect our world. Most importantly, children will be learning essential values such as sharing and taking turns, considering others and learning to forgive and say sorry.

 

Reminders: Children will receive homework every Wednesday. This needs to be returned on Monday morning. Reading books and library books will be changed once a week on your child's reading day. Please sign your child's reading record after reading with them.

 

Celebrating Teddy's Birthday in Nursery Class! We had a great time celebrating Teddy's birthday with fun activities like print painting with balloons, making playdough cakes, and decorating iced sugar cookies with marshmallows. Each child created a special cookie to take home. Thank you for making Teddy’s day so special! Check out the photos of all our wonderful activities below.

Teddy's Birthday Party: A Special Celebration. For Teddy’s birthday, each child’s teddy bear got a special invitation to the party! Here are our nursery children proudly holding their teddies, who were excited to join the fun. Enjoy the photos of our lovely teddies!

Today in PE, our nursery class started by using hoops as their 'cars' in a playful game of musical statues. They placed the hoops around their waists and pretended to drive while dancing and freezing to the music. After this, the fun continued with a challenging obstacle course. The children have shown great coordination and gross motor skills. It was a fun and energetic session that kept everyone moving and laughing!"

Phonics: Tuning into Environmental Sounds. In phonics, we have been focusing on environmental sounds and talking about the importance of listening carefully to the world around us. The children made rabbit ears to help them listen better and then we went on a listening walk in our outdoor area. We explored the sounds of our own footsteps, the wind, distant sirens, passing cars, and the chatter of people nearby. Check out the photos from our listening adventure!

Autumn 1: Whole School Science Investigation. In our science investigation, we explored why washing our hands is so important. The children learned about the power of soap and how it helps remove germs. During our experiment, we had fun watching the pepper scatter when we dipped a soapy finger into the water, showing the magic of soap in action!
