What a fabulous first week back we have had! Although our very first morning back brought some much-needed rain, it certainly didn’t dampen our spirits, and it has been wonderful to see our Trinity St. Peter’s Nursery family coming together once again.
This week, we have warmly welcomed both our new and returning children and their families into our Nursery family - and what a wonderful family we are! It has been so special watching the children begin to settle, explore and feel comfortable in their new surroundings, with lots of smiles, cuddles and moments of curiosity along the way.
The children have enjoyed exploring our Nursery environment, both indoors and outside, discovering new areas and resources and beginning to make them their own. We have already started learning each other’s names, getting to know one another and forming those very first friendships.
Our focus book, to begin the term, has been the wonderful ‘Elmer’ by David McKee. Elmer has helped us to begin thinking about what makes each of us special, whilst celebrating the wonderful differences that make us special and unique. We ended our week by sharing our thoughts and ideas about what makes us unique and talking about some of the things we have particularly enjoyed during our first week together.
It has been a very special beginning to our year, and we are so excited to continue getting to know each and every one of our children, discovering their interests, celebrating their individuality and watching them grow in confidence as our Nursery family grows together.
We are looking forward to all the wonderful adventures, learning and memories that lie ahead.
Wishing all our Nursery families a lovely and relaxing weekend together.
Keep shining bright!
