Welcome to our Fantastic Nursery!
Our topic for this half term is Sand and Water
We will be learning all about the seaside and creatures that live under the sea. We will be testing different objects to see if they float or sink and making boats. We will be doing lots of creative work and we will have exciting role play areas such as an Ice Cream Parlour and a Fish and Chip Shop.
Nursery Staff
Mrs Tuke, Mrs Khaleeq, Miss Ward (trained in Paediatric First Aid Level 3) and Mrs Stenton (our fantastic cleaner)
We are very proud of our Nursery and our recent Ofsted Report. Please find time to come and look around at the work we are doing. Please telephone school for further details. If you have any questions, please come and talk to a member of staff. We are available at the start and finish of session. We look forward to working with you and your child this year.
Literacy
We will be listening to stories about the seaside, drawing pictures and retelling the stories. We will be talking about our visit to Filey and all the different things we did and saw. We will be drawing and painting pictures and recalling our day in Filey.
We will also continue to practise recognising and writing our names and holding our pencils correctly.
In Phonics this half term we will continue to learn our letter sounds and think about different words which begin with each letter sound. We will also be writing letter sounds and blending sounds to make words.

Reading and Library
Please continue to read library books with your children and sign the orange book to say you have read together. This will ensure your child moves up the Reading Rocket and hopefully reaches the top. Please encourage your child to take care of their book and keep it in a safe place.
We will continue to change library books on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
PE
We are really enjoying our PE sessions with Nathan every Monday and we are trying very hard to get undressed and dressed by ourselves. Please send black shorts and a white T shirt in a bag and please name all items of clothing to avoid any mix up!
