Nursery Austerfield 2022

6th October 2022Selina Burton

Yesterday the Nursery children were very excited to visit Austerfield (and were even more excited to eat their packed lunches). We had a wonderful day exploring the woods and learning more about Goldilocks and the Three Bears and We’re going on a Bear Hunt.

A HUGE thank you to all the parents, Grandparents and Aunties who braved the very wet weather with us and the made the day special for their children. Without you this trip wouldn’t have been possible and we are so glad you could join us. Also a big SHOUT OUT to the children. For a group of 3 and 4 year olds who haven’t been at school very long they did Green Top proud, showing good listening and lots of enthusiam.

Nursery – Creating woodlands for our bears

4th October 2022Elizabeth Hay

Yesterday, the children and Nursery had a wonderful time creating their own woodland trays for their bears to live in as part of our expedition learning ’How do we care for bears?’ The children explored natural objects in our environment to make their trays and drew their own bears to add in. The children even added porridge oats to feed them. Well done Nursery! We are so proud of you for your creativeness, innovation and imagination!

Nursery – Wonderful counting skills!

28th September 2022Elizabeth Hay

The adults in Nursery were so proud of the children yesterday and how hard they worked touch counting objects. The children quickly learnt that counting objects is a much easier task when the objects are in a line rather than a heap. They then went on to touch count each object to find the correct amount.

Well done Nursery – you are all shining stars!

I wonder… What else can you count at home?

Nursery – Calling for Family Photos

Dear Parents and Carers,

This week we are kindly asking for each child to bring a family photo to Nursery for us to share together as part of our expedition learning and to display in our classroom.

Please pass the photo on to a member of the team this week.

Many thanks,

The Nursery Team. 🙂

Nursery – Naming of possessions

26th September 2022Elizabeth Hay

Dear parents and carers,

Please make sure your child’s clothing, water bottles, packed lunches and any other items they bring to Nursery are clearly named. We are currently experiencing a lot of children’s possessions going missing.

Many thanks for your support with this.
