This week, our phonics sounds are ‘p’ & ‘i’. The children worked really hard today practising their letter formation for ‘i’.

We’ve had a lovely afternoon exploring colour and movement using paints, cars and water. The mud kitchen is always a popular place to be. Marco and his friends have been making a “pasta bake for Mrs Hay’s tea!” Yum! I can’t wait to eat it!

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.

There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad choice of clothing! We puddle suited up and had heaps of fun today in the rain.

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!

Thank you so much to all the parents & family members who joined us this morning for our Nursery book and a biscuit event. It was wonderful to see you all!

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!

Th children have explored the nursery garden today and used tape to create their own ‘nature bracelet’ with the leaves, grass and flowers they found. The children were very proud of them. Aren’t they beautiful!

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!
