Nursery Newsletter

Last week we held our Ugly Bug Ball.  This was a huge success, and we would like to thank all the parents for providing your child with an amazing costume.  It was a great turnout by parents, grandparents, younger siblings and family members.  The children had a wonderful time and loved being in their costumes and seeing their friends in their costumes.  It was lovely to hear the children sing their minibeast songs.  Thank you for all your donations of cakes and raffle prizes and for those who helped to set up the event.









In our SCARF lessons we have been looking at the differences between boys and girls and a lovey discussion was held about how boys and girls can play with each other and that anyone can play with any of the resources in the Nursery and that girls can play with boys and vice versa.  We also looked at families and how families can be very different and how we respect the different make up of families.  For example, does a family always have a mummy and a daddy?  We have also been thinking about the needs of babies and how we look after babies.  We used the role play baby dolls, baby bottles, baby clothes and nappies to help the children understand how babies need almost everything done for them.  We compared babies needs to their needs now and how they are different.




In our Religions and World views lessons awe have been looking at Special Places and the special places people of different faiths use for worship.  We looked at Mosques and how Muslims worship and pray in a mosque.  Sanober, one of our Year 6 pupils is a practising muslim and she was kind enough to come and talk to the Nursery children about her faith and her first hand experience of mosques.  We also looked at synagogues and why this is a a special place for Jewish people.


One of or more practical activities for our Phonics lesson was to make jammy toast for the letter ‘j’.  Yummy!
