Welcome to our Nursery!

Our Nursery class is led by two Teachers, and two Early Years Assistants. Children are encouraged to participate in a range of stimulating, fun learning activities to prepare them for school including phonics, sounds time, pencil control, group activities and much much more. Our Nursery Class ensures that every child gains the most from their nursery experience which in turn helps to make their journey into reception an easy and happy one.

Our nursery class is in a bright open-plan space for children aged 3-4. The nursery classroom is set up for learning through play, with a role play, small world area, story corner, block play, mark making, creative area and a mud kitchen amongst others. 

The teachers in Nursery are Mrs Bloor and Mrs Barber. Our Early Years Professional is Mrs Cochrane. Mrs Bloor works on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Mrs Barber works on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  Our teaching assistants are Miss Fisher, Mrs Wollaston and Mrs Bedford.

Happy New Year! We hope you have all had a lovely Christmas break and you've eaten lots of chocolate! We can't wait to hear all about your holidays.

We are excited to welcome some new children into Nursery this half term as well as welcoming back Mrs Barber from her maternity leave. 

This half term our new Pathways book is called "Let's all creep through Crocodile Creep". We will be thinking about the journey the animals go on and looking carefully for the hidden crocodiles.

                                                        Let's All Creep Through Crocodile Creek ...

Our Nursery Curriculum takes into account the needs and interests of the children and, as a result, is constantly evolving and changing. We will update Tapestry with all our exciting learning activities, as well as any observations we make on your children. We would also be very appreciative if you could upload anything that your child is doing at home, as we love to learn about your child's learning journey at home. 

 

Other Information

  • Please could you send your child into Nursery with a named water bottle.
  • The children will need a change of clothing (named please) and outdoor shoes and clothing (puddle suits etc) which can be kept in school. Please could you ensure the children have spare socks as we seem to be running out of spare socks very quickly!
  • Please could you make sure that all clothing is named so that items can be returned to their rightful owners!! 
  • PE is on a Friday. Children can come to school in something comfortable and appropriate to participate in their PE session on this day. 

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our team.

Thank you for all of your support.
