Welcome to the Spring Term!
Welcome to the Spring Term in Nursery. I hope you have had a happy and healthy Christmas.
We are looking forward to welcoming the children back in to school after the Christmas holidays and hearing all their news. We have a few new starters to welcome to our class too.
We are keeping our fingers crossed for an uninterrupted and healthy term with lots of fun and learning. Hopefully the weather will be kind to us and we will be able to spend a lot of time outdoors.
We will begin the term with a mini Winter topic, before continuing with our 'Sound of the Week' on 17th January, with the letter G.
.
If you have any queries or concerns, please email Mrs. McDonnell at
mcdonnelle2@hwbcymru.net or wait at the bottom of the steps once all the children have been dismissed from Nursery for a chat.

Our class routines
In the current climate some of our normal routines are on hold.
Monday
SOUND OF THE WEEK
Our special sound of the week is introduced today. Please could you help your child by reinforcing the sound of the week at home. The sound of the week is displayed on this website, together with some activities we will be doing. Maybe play I spy games and look for things beginning with our special sound. Each sound we learn has its own song which can be found on the You Tube link below. (PLEASE SUPERVISE YOUR CHILD WHEN USING YOU TUBE)

Wednesday
WELLY WEDNESDAY (N2's, the children starting Reception in September only)
We love forest school and go out whatever the weather so please can you ensure the children wear suitable clothing and bring wellies to change into. Please don't allow them to wear wellies to come to school as they can be uncomfortable when sitting down and will be muddy after being in the woodland. Trousers for girls are also more comfortable when in the woodland.

Thursday
GYM
The children do not need to wear a kit on gym day, just easy clothes to move around in (joggers, leggings etc and preferably not skirts, dresses or jeans) Velcro shoes are much easier to manage when the children are dressing and undressing. It would also be very helpful if all school jumpers are labelled. Please encourage your child to try to put on their own socks and shoes.
LIBRARY
Your child will choose a library book to bring home and enjoy with you. A bedtime story is a lovely way to end the day.

Every day the children will have the opportunity to enjoy water and fruit during snack time. The children absolutely love snack time so please would you be kind enough to continue to contribute towards this activity. Thank you. (A contribution of £1.00 per week will cover the cost of fruit and snacks relevant to our weekly letter sound e.g. crumpets for 'c' week.
Water is available throughout the morning and we all sit down together for a drink during the morning. Please do not send drinks in the children's bags.
