Nursery - Autumn 1 - Week 2

What a fabulous week we have had, the children are really settling into the environment and enjoying making new friends.

On Monday the children started Forest school with Mrs Bevin. They took their seats around the ‘fire circle’ and talked about the Forest School rules. The children learnt how to leave the fire circle safely and also the calling sound used for the children to listen out for when exploring, this indicates a return to the circle.

On Thursday, we were visited by ‘Out line Arts’ who came to work with the children in preparation for our Circus day in a couple of weeks. The children enjoyed taking part in ‘popcorn’ craft. Their pictures were amazing and we can’t wait for you to see them displayed. Thank you to all involved and those who helped.

On Friday, we celebrated ‘Dot Day’ and the children looked amazing wearing their spotty clothes! They enjoyed making their own mark using a variety of different media for example paint, crayons, chalk and pencils and were very proud to display it in our very own art gallery. The children also took part in lots of spotty activities including hunt the spot and playing with the parachute. They even took part in singing ‘The Dot’ song and having a try at copying the actions.

 A poster containing 100 recommended reads for Nursery children has been attached to this blog. By providing 100 quality texts at an age appropriate level, this list may be useful when choosing your child's next book. We hope it inspires the children to continue on in their reading journeys whilst further encouraging a lifelong love of books and stories.

We hope you have a lovely weekend and look forward to seeing you on Monday.

Mrs Molloy, Mrs Bevin and the Reception team
