Hello!

First of all we would just like to say thank you so much for your support and co-operation over the last term! Diolch!!

Over the next few days, we will be uploading work to be completed on TEAMS.  Below we have uploaded some documents that will give you instruction and support with how to work TEAMS.

The most important thing about this time at home is that your child is happy, healthy and safe, so please don't worry if you can't complete the work!

Kind Regards,

Mrs Evans, Mrs Willis, Miss Phillips

The children will be taking part in their Christmas concert on Tuesday and a recording of the concert will be shared with you on Thursday.

Remember the children may wear a Christmas jumper or party clothes to school on Tuesday. We would like them to bring a ‘snack box with a few treats’ to eat (please ensure that no nuts or nut products are included). The ‘snack box with treats’ will be for your child’s consumption only - NO food will be shared.

Many thanks for your support.

Thursday 15/10/20

Good morning! Bore da!

I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s story and song.

Today, we are going to focus on the autumn colours. Can you look outside your window or take a walk around your garden to see how many different leaves you can see and/or find.

What makes the leaves different?

Is it their colour?

Is it their size?

Is it how they feel?

If you are lucky enough to have leaves in your garden, could you collect some.

Count how many you have?

Can you sort them into different groups?

• By their colour / their shape – big ones, small ones, long ones, short ones.
• By how they feel – are they smooth to touch? Or are they rough to touch? Or do they make a crunchy noise when you hold them in your hand?

I would like you to make a person with the leaves you’ve collected. You will need to remember to include:

A body

A head

2 legs

2 arms

A face with 2 eyes, nose, mouth

Can you give your Leaf Man a name.

Hello!

I hope you’re all safe and well at home.

As we will be home for a short time, I will upload ideas of a variety of activities and games to help support your child during this period of home learning. Activity ideas will be uploaded daily for you to choose from here on our class page, on the school website. I’ll include a variety of practical activities for you to choose from. You can e-mail me pictures of your child completing their activities, playing games and having fun. I would love to see pictures of everyone busy playing and completing the activities at home.

During this time at home it is important that your child is happy, healthy and safe.

 If I can help you in any way, please contact me via e-mail and I will do my best to help in any way possible.

Bye for now,

Mrs Evans

Mrs Willis and Miss Phillips.

Week commencing: 05/10/20

We've had a fantastic couple of weeks in the Nursery and have made the most of playing outside in the garden when the sun has shone! We have been learning all about ourselves, naming parts of the external body and face and talking about our likes and dislikes. 

We had a fantastic 'Sports Day Morning' and everyone who took part enjoyed and smiled throughout. We've got lots of photos and videos that we would like to share with you on here however we are still waiting for some parents to return the photo consent form. If you haven't yet, please return this week. Once we have all the forms returned we will begin to upload the photos we have of your children having fun, making friends and enjoying their time in Nursery. 

Everyone has received a Sports Day certificate and for those pupils that weren't in school on the Friday we will repeat the activity again on a day when the weather is dry. I look forward to sharing these photos with you all. 

This week we're going to focus on 'The Autumn.' 

On Tuesday, 6th October please send your child to school in joggers, wellies and a raincoat. We're going to talk an autumn walk around the school grounds, using our senses to investigate the signs of autumn and all the colours it offers. 

Thank you for all your support

Nursery Staff. 

On Friday this week, your child will participate in a Class Sports event. Remember to send your child in their sport clothes and trainers on Friday. The children will all have fun running, jumping, throwing items at a target and lots more. 

The children will all receive a certificate from their teacher which they will stick in their Well-being books. Due to the current situation we do not want to send too many items home from school. You are welcome to print this certificate so that your child has a copy at home.

Keep an eye on the class page for pictures to follow. 

Diolch / Thank you

Your child's  PE day will be on Friday. We ask you kindly to dress your child in joggers/leggings, school blue polo shirt and their trainers.

Hello,

Welcome to the Nursery.

I'm glad to stay that the first intake of children have settled in well to their new class and have made new friends.

More information will follow on the class page over the next few week, so please keep an eye. 

Could you please fill in the form below to confirm who will be collecting your child at the end of each session. You could e-mail the completed form to me at evanse148@hwbmail.net or return the form to us in Nursery when your child is in next. 

Thank you for your support,

Nursery Staff. 

Hello and a warm welcome to you all to the Nursery. It's wonderful to say that all the children have settled in well to their new routines and they are clearly very happy in their new class. We are very fortunate to welcome new friends to our class - a warm welcome to you all and we are very much looking forward to making new friends.

The children have been busy exploring their new classroom and most have already found their favourite corner. The classroom is full of different areas, resources and toys for them to investigate and play with.

Our main theme this term is ‘Here I am.’ We are looking forward to learning all about ourselves our bodies and using our senses. We will be listening to lots of stories that are all about our theme and others that are of interest to us. There are several festivals and celebrations to celebrate during this term and we will begin with the festival of light - Diwali and then Guy Fawkes, just to name a couple and finishing at the end of the term with Christmas. We will also be learning about the changes in nature and the weather during Autumn. It's going to be a busy and an exciting first term in the Nursery.

Bye for now,

Mrs Evans, Miss Phillips and Mrs Willis.
