Term: Spring 1 Date 13.01.14
We are glad to see you all back at Nursery and hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. We have some amazing activities planned for this term and look forward to the children developing new skills.
Our new topic is based on Nursery Rhymes and Traditional Tales. Each week we will focus on two Nursery Rhymes. This week’s are ‘Humpy Dumpty’ and ‘Sing a song a sixpence’. Song words will be sent home each week for you to practise with your child. Our story this week is, ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’.

The children had the opportunity to try Weetabix and most of them thoroughly enjoyed it. They have asked to try more cereal so we intend to try a different cereal each week. We would appreciate it if you could give a voluntary contribution of £1 so that we can buy ingredients we need.
We have excellent links with our local library and librarian. Therefore we have organised a Stay and Play session on Friday 24th January at 9.00 – 9.45 for the morning children and 2.30- 3.15 for the afternoon children. Jo the librarian will be in to discuss, ‘The Love of Reading’. We look forward to seeing you there.
Finally we will be sending out a topic questionnaire to discover what your child already knows about Nursery rhymes and any particular interests. We would value your thoughts.
Kind Regards,
The Nursery Team
