This week in nursery we have  started our new theme ‘On The Farm’. We have read the story called ‘Chicken Licken’ which has lots of farm animals in. The children have painted pictures of different farm animals in the creative area, acted out the story with the small world animals and built a barn for them in the construction area. In maths we have sorted animals into groups of size and matched animals to picture cards. We have also been talking about the weather as there has been lots of wind and rain! We can’t wait for next week where we will continue looking at different farm animals!

Dear Parents/Carers

To celebrate 25 years of World Book Day we are planning a week of fun.

The focus of the week is to develop reading for pleasure.

The theme this year is "Twisted Fairy Tales".  Each day there will be a fun activity for children to enjoy.  As well as launching a class reading journal, which will be an ongoing project.

Many thanks

This has been a busy week in nursery! We started our new story 'The wheels on the bus' as part of our 'transport' theme. We have enjoyed making our own buses with junk modelling and painting on big paper. On Tuesday we celebrated Chinese New Year- The year of the tiger. We made decorations to take home and listened to a story all about Chinese New Year. On Wednesday our families got to come into nursery to stay and play with us! We have had a busy, fun filled week!
