Thank you to all the parents and carers who attended our ‘New to Reception’ meeting. It was fantastic to see so many familiar and new faces and talk with you at the start of your child’s journey into reception. We are very much looking forward to our 2 transition days on Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th July 8:30am-3pm. Please confirm with the nursery team your child’s attendance for these days.
Here is the information shared at the meeting.
Kind regards,
Miss Carter

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!
This is what a happy day in Nursery looks like. Sun, suncream and mud! Happy Days!
Today we introduced the story of The 3 Little Pigs for Case Study 3 of our Expedition and Literacy leaning. This afternoon we took inspiration from the story and collaborated to build a shelter. The children were excellent at recalling events and characters in the story and worked well at a team, talking about ideas and negotiating space.
Our little super stars! We’re so proud of them all!
A very lovely afternoon spent with Mr Kershaw for our XP Outdoors session. The children learnt about fire safety, how to keep a fire burning and how to make a pizza using tortilla wraps, tomato and herb sauce and cheese. The children then cooked them with care on the fire and enjoyed eating them once they were all oozy and warm. What a delicious treat for a Monday afternoon!
A huge shout out to all of the Nursery children for their excellent listening skills and awareness of the danger of fire which meant we could have an exciting experience safely.
