Book of the week
The children have loved listening to Little Red Riding Hood, listening to different versions of the story and talking about the similarities and differences between each story book. Many children found the wolf to be scary. All of the children agreed we should not speak to strangers and we should all listen to our grown ups who try to keep us safe.

Our topic focused learning
This week the children have been learning about Traditional tales. We listened to little red riding hood and looked at fiction books involving wolf characters like the wolfs pancakes and no dinner. The children have also enjoyed playing with small world farm animals and characters to create their own stories.
This weeks learning
The children have enjoyed coming back to nursery after the half term to see their friends and teachers. We have been counting and learning about the number zero, creating elaborate small world settings and helping our friends learn new skills.
Focused 2 year old activities
This week the toddler group has been focusing on the traditional tale of the three little pigs. Using prompts they have been acting the story, building and knocking down towers and blowing over objects like the big bad wolf.
We have also practiced our numbers 0 to 5 and a new nursery rhyme- open shut them. Please click the link below if you would like to sing along with your child at home.

Focus child Meetings
Each week children will be chosen to be observed by their keyworker. Emails will be sent home to inform parents of the upcoming parent meeting taking place the following week, either in person or via telephone. Parents will have an opportunity to complete a form asking questions and sharing concerns they may have for the key worker to answer during the parent meeting. This form will be sent via email. Please check your emails weekly for school communications and evidence me parents share from your children's teachers. Parents are welcome to upload pictures and videos of their children at home.
Chicken pox
We would like to make all parents aware that some children within the class have come down with chicken pox. Chicken pox commonly appears as small red spots which eventually blister. Chicken pox is contagious. We have included a link from the NHS with information regarding chicken pox and what to look for. Please check your children regularly for spots. Please keep children at home until the spots have cleared up to prevent further spread of the virus and seek medical attention if required.
Key Information
Please LABEL all your children's belongings, including both shoes. Please do not send your child in with a school bag as we have very limited space and all spare clothing should be stored in the nursery. Please do not send your child in with water bottles as we have cups stored in the nursery. Most importantly please do not allow children to bring toys from home into the nursery as they may get lost, cause conflict with other children or become a dangerous hazard. All resources in the nursery are risk assessed and age appropriate to maintain the children's safety.
If you have any questions please contact nursery@broadford.havering.sch.uk or for more urgent messages speak to a member of staff or contact the school office: 01708 342880 or office@broadford.havering.sch.uk
Kind regards,
The Nursery Team
