This week we have looked at the story ‘The Rainbow Fish’. The story is about the feeling you get when you share something with someone.

Thank you parents for coming to our Sports Day on Tuesday – the rain wasn’t going to put us off. The children did really well and I know they were thrilled to get a medal and have an ice lolly!

On Tuesday, the new deputy head came down to spend some time with the Nursery children and at the end of the day she read us a story.

Our new Topic in RE is ‘Our World’. We talked about who made the world, the things that were made and nursery were very good at remembering what Reception had told us in their class assembly. We watched a video of God making the world:

The children have also been looking at the ‘Our World’ Area in the classroom:

We have now come to the end of looking at Olivers Vegetables and Oliver’s Fruit Salad – the children keep singing the fruit salad song that Mrs Gallaher taught them. The children created some art work – their own plate of food and talked about what they had chosen with a grown up.

This week the children were delighted to see some new toys in the nursery – these new toys were purchased using the money raised from the Cake sale that happened just before half term.

Children need to have a named hat in school as the weather gets nicer, we will be spending a lot of time outside. All children need sun cream applied before they come to school. Suncream can come into school but children need to be able to apply it themselves.

Have a lovely weekend

We have had such a busy week in Nursery – bouncing on a castle, whizzing down a giant slide, a lovely Pentecost Party and at long last the butterflies came out of their cocoons.

On Tuesday the first two butterflies emerged from their cocoons, the children were so excited and there was a lot of chatter about what had happened and on Wednesday we had two more appear. On Thursday morning we went round to the Prayer Garden to release the four that we had, we said a special prayer to keep them safe and then watched as they came out from the net. We left one cocoon in the net and this morning we came to school to find it had emerged! We went back round to the Prayer Garden to let him out.

Thank you for coming to our Pentecost party on Wednesday afternoon. The children made some jam sandwiches in the morning and in the afternoon we waited for our grown ups to arrive. Thank you again for all the food contributions.

The children have spent a lot of time outside this and will continue to do so after half term. Please make sure they have got sun cream on before they come to school, children also need to have a hat.

Please scroll down for Sponsored Bounce photos.

Have a lovely half term and enjoy the sunshine, see you on Monday 5th June.

The Big Bounce! On Tuesday morning the Nursery children enjoyed bouncing on the castle, going through the maze and sliding down the very big slide! Thank you PTA for organising this wonderful event!

This week we have been reading the story ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. The children have been enjoying playing with the characters and acting out the story in our tuff tray.

Our new role play is now open, we now have a Garden Centre. The children are enjoying using their basket to buy different items, scanning the items on the till and having a cup of tea and a cake in the garden centre cafe.

In PE we are continuing with our movement development unit, this week we played a game called ‘Rob the nest’. The children had to collect the correct colour beanbag from one nest and take it back to their own.

The caterpillars are still in their cocoons and the children are keeping a watchful eye on them.

We hope you can join us for our Pentecost party on Wednesday 24th May at 2:15pm, it looks like the weather will be nice. Children can wear red to school that day; red being the liturgical colour of Pentecost.

Friday mornings are reading morning – Please join us from 8:45 – 9:00 to read a story with your child.

Next Friday is Nursery and Reception Cake Sale after school – we would welcome any donations of cakes.

As the weather start to improve children will need sun cream applied before they come to school. Children might like to wear a hat too as we will be spending more time outside during the Summer term.

Have a great weekend and hopefully next week we will have some butterflies.

Miss Taylor

On Tuesday we did some planting…

On Tuesday when we came back to school after a lovely Bank Holiday weekend, we were very interested to see what the caterpillars were up to, and wow! Three of them were hanging from the top of the pot! Today we transferred them to the net and now we are waiting very patiently to see what happens next!!

This week we talked a lot about King Charles and the children enjoyed making flags, having a tea party and attending an assembly about all the wonderful things that will happen over the weekend.

On Tuesday we went into the hall and played some parachute games….

The caterpillars have grown a lot since last week and the children have been really interested in looking at them changing. We are now waiting for the next step in the cycle.

Today we had a picnic in class and listened to some classical music.
