Nursery have had a gorgeous afternoon partying and saying ‘see you later’.
Thank you so much to all of the families have sent lovely cards and gifts. It was so thoughtful and kind. I will treasure them all along with all the memories I have of all of your very special children.
Have a wonderful and safe summer.

The children were exploring the nursery garden and discovered a blackberry bush. We decided to take them to the mud kitchen to squash and make juice. The children the used the juice to create their win purple fruit paintings! Awesome work Nursery crew!
We had such a lovely and exciting 2 days for Transition in Crew Wallace. The children played beautifully together and were so brave in the first step of their new chapter. We played, talked, sang songs and learned about each other. It was wonderful.
A huge thanks to parents and carers for supporting us with your little ones next steps.
We hope they enjoyed it as much as we did. We can’t wait to see you all again in August.

The children have been trying new things today just like Kevin in ‘The Koala who could’. We enjoyed reading the story about trying things that might scare us and feel new. The children then practised walking with a lunch tray like they will need to do when getting their lunch in Reception. We also looked at our new transition book all about the Reception teachers, people who can help us and our new learning environments. We then each said a message that we want to say to Mrs Jones and Mrs Wallace. Mrs Hay wrote them down to send up to Reception on Wednesday. It’s been a lovely but my goodness, we are all going to miss this wonderful bunch of children!
Now we have finished our expedition learning, this week we have focused on ‘children’s choice’. The Nursery children asked for a doctors, a beauty salon and ice creams. They are thoroughly enjoying role playing with the resources, crafting as always is a big hit as is the sand and interactive board. It’s wonderful to see so many happy, busy and creative children today.
Yesterday, the children enjoyed a visit from a live band all the way Germany. They played Billie Jean, I got this feeling and Skyfall. The children loved looking at the vast range of instruments and clapping along to the beat. What a wonderful experience for our youngest children to enjoy.
Mr Ridgeway, Mr Bettson and Miss Kennedy taught Nursery this afternoon. They taught the children our phonics song, practised our numbers and practised our colours. The teachers were so excellent at the role, I think I might put my feet up and have a rest tomorrow!
…Only kidding – See you bright and early in fancy dress for our day of fun and dancing!
The children learnt how to take safe risks today with Mr Kershaw. They carefully used the hedge shears to trim the Nursery hedge. The children showed great stewardship but also excellent listening skills and ability to follow instructions.
The hedge looks so much better. Thank you Mr Kershaw and Nursery Crew!
Today we learnt about another Learning Alien, Have a Go Henry. We talked about independence and trying something and ‘having a go’ even if it new or tricky. The Nursery children had a great time playing the get dressed game where we set the timer and they had to put as many items of school clothing on as they could. I was so impressed how well so many children could do up the zip in the coat and put woolly gloves on.
Super work Nursery Crew!
