This week in nursery the children enjoyed learning about the story of creation and how this is a special story for christians. We had a sing and dance to a song and coloured in the favourite part of our story!
The children are having a lovely day in Nursery having a teddy bears picnic and explaining why their teddies are special to them. Mrs Hay and Mrs Burton even brought and talked about their very old teddies too!
This week in phonics we will be looking at the nursery rhyme ‘Twinkle twinkle’. The children will be singing the nursery rhyme, listening for rhyming words and clapping out syllables in the words such as s-k-y and s-t-ar.
I wonder – can you practise this rhyme with your child at home and listed for the rhyming words throughout?
The children have been working hard to represent numbers to 10 in different ways. The children have been working hard to practise their counting skills with objects.
I wonder… Can you practise counting objects at home? E.g 10 cars, 10 leaves, 10 sticks… take a photo and send it in to [email protected]

The nursery children enjoyed reading the story Dogger. Some children chose to draw the main character and talk about why he was special in the story. Other children chose to reenact the toy stall scene in the book using the role play toys.
Awesome work Nursery Crew! It is wonderful to see you linking the stories we have read to your play.
Last week the children enjoyed reading our expedition story ‘Dogger’ by Shirley Hughes. The children used play dough to create the main character ‘Dogger’, we practised our cutting/ scissor skills, mark made in shaving foam (this was a really fun way to write!) and we sang nursery rhymes and played parachute games. What a fun week we had!
Food safety advice for children age 5 and under – When sending your child with a packed lunch, please cut small round foods, like grapes, strawberries and cherry tomatoes, lengthways and into quarters. Cut large fruits like melon, and hard fruit or vegetables like raw apple and carrot into slices instead of small chunks.
Many thanks for your support.

On Wednesday 2nd October Nursery will be having a teddy bears picnic in Nursery. The children are invited to come to school in their pyjamas and bring their favourite teddy to celebrate reading week.
Many thanks for your ongoing support in your child’s learning. We are really excited to share the day with your child.

This week in phonics Nursery will be singing the nursery rhyme ‘Old McDonald’ and listening for animal sounds to match to the farm animal.
Listening games will be the focus for next few weeks before we begin phase 2 phonics sounds.
Today in nursery the children talked to each other about who is special to them. The children thought about why people are special and the kind things that family and friends do for us. We talked about how we can show thanks and we made thank you cards for our special people! A shout out to all the adults who love our smallest children!
