Welcome to Nursery's class page

 

We hope you had a restful half term, because we came back on Monday and hit the ground running!

This half term our topic is ‘Space’, and the first book we are looking at is ‘The Smeds and The Smoos’ by Julia Donaldson. This week the children have enjoyed developing their fine motor skills with our alien colour sorting game, colouring in their own aliens, making rockets out of the construction materials and even making some alien creatures in our tuff tray!

As it has been Bonfire night and our story of the week links nicely to colour mixing we also had fun doing some firework painting in the garden. Some of us may have come home with more paint on us than not, but we helped create a fabulous piece of artwork that we’ve put in our classroom.

On Wednesday we also had our first session at Forest School where we learnt some safety rules and made leaf kebabs. All the children agreed it was very exciting and are looking forward to our session next week – remember to bring in welly boots and puddle suits to help keep then clean and dry!

What a busy first week it has been. We look forward to sharing what we get up to next.

Have a good weekend,

Ms Munro, Mrs Roberts and Mrs Shew

REMEMBER – NURSERY FAMILY LEARNING AT 9AM MONDAY 10^TH NOVEMBER

Week 1 3.11.25

Welly Wednesday at Forest School

Take a look at the 'leaf kebabs' we made at our first Forest School session. We also started to learn rules to keep us safe for when we move onto more advanced activities and get to sit around an actual fire in our firepit! 

Star in a jar reward!!!!!

This week we finally filled up our reward jar with stars. The children have been earning stars all half term so that they could decorate biscuits. They were super excited and loved it! They even helped wash up afterwards.

 

Home Learning - Due 21st November

This week for our home learning we would like to invite the children to design their own monster alien as part of our space topic. Young Writers are holding a Monster Mayhem competition for the best monster alien pictures to be published in a book. We are therefore going to submit all the children’s artwork into the competition. Please see all the information on the sheet and template that your children are bringing home with them. We can't wait to see what imaginative creations they come up with!

Important Information

It would be helpful if your child could bring in their welly boots and waterproofs, which can be left in school as the weather is changeable at the moment. After half term we will be starting Forest school with our afternoon children, as part of our 'Welly Wednesdays'. So make sure you have named puddle suits and wellies ready for then at the very latest!

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!
