Welcome to Nursery's class page

 

This week in Nursery we have been focusing on the text 'How to Catch a Star' by Oliver Jeffers. The children have loved thinking of ways that we might be able to catch one, and there have been various rockets created as a result! We also used some stencils to draw our own stars and some of us even had a go at cutting them out ourselves before we decorated them!

On Wednesday the weather provided us with an unexpected opportunity to go and play in some snow. Both the Nursery and Reception bundled up in their puddle suits and enjoyed making footprints, drawing patterns and even moulding the snow into mini snowmen and snowballs. Well done to all the parents who have provided spare clothes and boots for the children. We were slightly soggy afterwards!

Along with this, our rehearsals for the EYFS nativity got underway in the hall. The children are doing a great job of learning their songs and we can't wait to share all their hard work with you on the 16th December at 10am.

Make sure you take a look through our photos from this week to see all the things we've been up to.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Thank you,

Ms Munro, Mrs Roberts and Mrs Shew

Elfridges

This year for Christmas, instead of having a Christmas Fair and asking you for lots of donations and to volunteer on the day, the PTA are running 2 different events.

🎅🏻 *Elfridges - 5th December 2025*

This is a really lovely opportunity for your children to buy surprise gift for their loved ones. There will be gifts suitable for mum, dad, grandma, grandad and siblings, etc. Each child taking part will get to visit the shop during the day on Friday 5th December. There will be helpers in the shop to guide them on what to buy. *Tokens need to be pre-ordered by 21st November.* Don't miss out. Gifts range in price from £1 to £2.50. 

*Still need to buy tokens?* You can pre-order tokens via the PTA box, cash in an envelope with child's name and class. 

🎅🏻 *Carols with Santa - a magical hour of festive fun! 12th December 2025*

This is a free event straight after school on Friday 12th December. We will have the Aeolians and school choir singing Carols, of which everyone is welcome to join in. There will be a special visit from Santa on his pony-driven sleigh delivering a token gift to all the children.

There will be refreshments available to purchase.

Welly Wednesday in the snow!

We had so much fun playing in the garden!

Home Learning - Due 25th November

This week for our home learning we would like you to colour in a picture of a star. You could use the sheets provided (your child will be bringing them home) or draw your own. You could colour it, stick it, collage it, the choice is yours. Go as crazy as you like, the more creative the better! We will be adding these to our 'Space' display in class.

Important Information

As the weather is changeable at the moment please make sure your child has a warm coat, suitable shoes (preferably a pair of willy boots in school as well), a jumper and some spare clothes. You may also wish to send them in with a hat and some gloves, but please, as always, make sure everything is labelled!

If you fancy getting your hands dirty then why not try our no-cook playdough recipe. The children love helping to make our playdough in class. You could even make your recipe more exciting by adding some scents or even some glitter!
