Nursery holiday photos needed

Hello!

Next week we will be talking about where we have travelled and enjoyed a holiday. Please can each child bring in one holiday photograph, it can include family members, friends or just be of a lovely view. Please talk to you child about the photograph prior to bringing it to Nursery – it would be amazing if they could talk about their experiences and lovely memories. We will then display the photos in Nursery until the end of the Summer term.

Many thanks in advance for your support in your child’s learning.

Thinking about keeping our oceans clean

This afternoon the children were exploring sea life toys and recycling in the water tray. They were shocked and surprised to see and hear how animals are affected by this.

Following this the children investigated the water independently and talked to their peers about what they found.

Mason said “They got stuck in the rubbish”

Paighton said “They’ll get sick”

Louie said “The animals will not get through”

Kristoff said “it’s stuck, can’t swim”

Elodie said “the animals could swallow it, you should put it in the bin”

It was wonderful to hear such thoughtful comments from our Nursery children.

Disco dancing in Nursery!

The children had an awesome time this afternoon dancing to their favourite tunes and eating hot dogs. Ghostbusters and Micheal Buble’s ‘Spiderman’ were a real hit! I think the children will all sleep well tonight!

BEAUTIFUL phonics in Nursery

This week we have been working really hard in phonics revisiting and revising the letter sounds ‘a’ and ‘t’. The children have come on leaps and bounds with their letter formation and I needed to share their awesome progress with you… Some children have even started putting the sounds together to write VC and CVC words such as ‘at’, ‘cat’, ‘pat’, ‘sat’. Wonderful and beautiful work Nursery – I’m so proud of you!

Planting and writing in Nursery

The children have been really busy this afternoon planting beetroot and tomato plants. We talked about what a plant needs to help them grow (water, nutrients from the soil and sunshine). We talked about how we need to be gentle with the plant so we don’t damage it. The children then carefully watered the plants. Niamh and Yanis then wrote labels for the planters saying ‘beetroot’ and ‘tomatoes’.

What beautiful work Nursery Crew! I can’t wait to make a nursery summer salad with our own ingredients!
