Welcome back to those children continuing their Nursery journey and welcome to the children who are just beginning theirs!  We hope you all have had an enjoyable and restful Christmas break and are ready for a fun-filled term.

 

In Nursery we are active learners and over the Spring term we will be supporting your child continue developing their independence, communication and language and forming stronger bonds with children and their key adults. Your child will be given many opportunities to develop their critical thinking, explore their own skills and actively learn. This will continue throughout their time in Nursery.

 

Our Nursery sessions run each morning from 8:30am-11:30am and each afternoon session from 12:15pm-3:15pm. We operate an open door policy, so please do not hesitate to speak to a member of the Nursery team if you have any questions or messages, we are always happy to help.

 

The theme this half term is ‘Help is at Hand!’ where the children will be learning about all the people in their lives who help them for example firefighters, doctors etc. We then move on to ‘Animal Crackers’ after our half term break.

 

In English, we will be continuing to concentrate on our English language using nursery rhymes and discussion times. The children will be encouraged to communicate with adults and other children too. In Maths, we will start by looking at numbers the term looking at number one and then towards the end of the term we will begin to look at number 2. Throughout the day we will encourage children to try and use their numbers effectively.

 

Through stories and play opportunities we will concentrate on building relationships and developing a sense of belonging for the children in their environment.  The children will be able to get used to their new routines and will be encouraged to develop and expand their language skills in a variety of situations, both formal and informal, when playing and during structured games and activities.  This will be within the classroom and outdoor environments.

 

Wild Tribe will be taught on Wednesdays. Children will need a waterproof coat and wellies so that no matter the weather we are able to partake in Wild Tribe.

 

It would also be appreciated if all uniform (including PE kit and pumps and water bottles) could be labelled with your child’s full name and class. ALL children will always need a spare pair of clothes in school, in case of any accidents.

 

Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher at the end of the school day or via Class Dojos. Thank you in anticipation of your continued support.
