A beautiful day in nursery…

The children were so engaged and excited about their learning today in Nursery. They were busy mark making, designing and creating their own knight’s shield, using loose parts for role play and small world scenarios, building castles in the construction area, printing with sponges and role playing what happens in a fairytale castle. WOW! It was a joy to see the children playing collaboratively and independently with all of the provision so beautifully.

Nursery Family Learning

A huge thank you to all who joined us for our family learning and fundraiser today. It looks like all the children had a wonderful time and were able to get some goodies to take home.

We raised £101.20 for our expedition learning.

Thank you so much for your generosity and donations.

SUNCREAM

As the weather is finally getting warmer, we kindly ask you to apply suncream to your child before they come to school. 

We ask for or you to provide your child with a NAMED bottle of suncream, hat and water bottle to ensure sun safety for our children. Please ensure bottles are only filled with water.

You will be asked to sign next to your child’s name when you bring in the suncream to Nursery or Reception which gives staff permission to apply your child’s suncream to your child should they need help to do this. Please give the suncream to a member of staff and not place it in your child’s bag (we have had a few explosions in the past!). 

Your child’s suncream can then remain in their class and returned to you at the end of the summer term.

If you have any questions, please ask. 

Many thanks, 

Mrs Hay, Mrs Burton, Mrs Wallace & Mrs Jones

Nursery – Cinderella Launched!

Today the children have listened to the story of Cinderella to start and inspire our Expedition learning. The children have been Motivated Moes and decided to create paper doll princess and princess crowns. The children enjoyed decorating the crowns using glitter, crape paper and sequins.

Nursery phonics letters

This week we are focusing on letters x, y and z.

Encourage your child to spot these letters in books and in their environment. Can they say the letter name and phonetic sound? Can they write the grapheme?

Reception maths

This week we have been focussing on number bonds to 10 in our maths learning. We have been showing these in different ways and the children were using the knowledge that they already had to help them.

We tried it in as many ways as we could. Well done Class 3, we are definitely maths superstars!

Reception Hooking in

We were hooking into our new Expedition this week. Our Expedition is called Once Upon a Time : Who is hiding in the pages of the book. We have been making some storybook crafts and the children were keen to show off their fairy godmothers wands!

Well done everyone for a super week.
