Nursery Welcome Meeting

2nd September 2025Rebecca Carter

We are delighted to invite all parents and carers of children in nursery to our welcome meeting on Wednesday 24th September from 5.00pm – 6.00pm in the school hall (please use the hall door entrance).

This meeting will be a wonderful opportunity to meet the nursery teaching team and to hear more about the exciting year of learning ahead. The meeting will cover many things including phonics, visits and assessment in the early years. We can answer any questions that you may have and explore the year ahead together.

Most importantly, this will be a chance to learn about routines and expectations in nursery, and to see how home and school can work together to make this a positive, successful and enjoyable year for every child. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing the exciting journey ahead!

Thank you in advance,

Miss Carter and the F1 (Nursery) Team

Our first day in Nursery

1st September 2025Elizabeth Hay

We have had such a beautiful first day with our new children in Nursery. It’s been so calm and the children have all enjoyed building new friendships and exploring the Nursery space.

We have all been so proud of our older children and how caring they have been towards our newest children and look forward to another day of fun tomorrow!

A Wonderful first week back!

We have had a gorgeous first week back with our children from last year. It has been wonderful to hear about their summer adventures and watch them play together so beautifully. We look forward to welcoming new children to nursery next week and watching new friendships grow.

Nursery – WATER DAY!

27th August 2025Elizabeth Hay

WOW! We have had the most gorgeous morning exploring water and building strong and lasting relationships. We have all experienced ‘throw your head back’ laughter! The children loved soaking the adults, throwing water balloons, firing super soakers, splashing , sponging and lots of bubble play. It’s been so special and created memories to last.

Nursery – borrow a book!

27th August 2025Elizabeth Hay

We now have a ‘borrow a book station’ located at the entrance to Nursery. Help yourself to a book to read with your child at home. Please sign the book you choose out and in again once returned in our ‘Nursery library log book’.

Happy reading!

Nursery – First Day Back!

26th August 2025Elizabeth Hay

Nursery have had a beautiful first day back building our CREW. We started the morning by coming together to share our highlights of our summer holidays. We then went to Camp Green Top and made pizzas with Mr Kershaw and we thought they were super yummy! We enjoyed stories, songs and playing with the provision to kick start our expedition: Marvellous Me – What makes us the same and different?

I was so proud of how well the children have settled back in to Nursery life and it’s certainly been lovely to see each other again!

Nursery – we are explorers and artists!

15th July 2025Elizabeth Hay

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!
