Our nursery children are delighting in the experience of listening to captivating stories being read aloud, while also seizing the opportunity to independently access books from our library corner. Please help your child foster a love for reading by reading at home with them. Why not take your child to the local library and discuss what a library is?

Our nursery children are on an exciting journey of discovery as they learn to count to 10 and beyond, using the natural world around them, loose parts. as well as building blocks and Lego bricks. Please continue to help your child at home with their counting and recognising the numbers.

We thank you for your continued support.

Welcome back to Spring 1! We are diving into lessons about healthy eating and growth. This week, we’ve been immersed in the story of “Oliver’s Vegetables.” The children have been enjoying tasting various fruits, crafting their healthy eating plates, designing their own vegetables, role playing at a dental surgery and engaging in discussions about healthy and unhealthy foods during circle time.

 

 

Today we learnt all the countries in South America and then used coloured card to make the different flags.

This term we will be looking at South America. We looked at Brazilian culture and the students made carnival masks. Take a look!
