Welcome everyone to Autumn 1

A huge welcome to our brand new Nursery children and to our existing Nursery children!

We hope you've had a fabulous Sumnmer and have enjoyed spending time with your families and friends. We are excited to hear what you have all been doing over the holiday. Busy Bee will be helping the children to share their news at circle time. Miss. Fleming and I would love to see any holiday snaps if you care to post them on our Dojo message page.

The topic for this half term is 'OURSELVES'! You can find a copy of our Autumn 1 Knowledge Organiser on our class page and on Dojo.

We will be talking about ourselves and our families and where we live. We will be looking at how we are similiar and different to our friends in Nursery and aroung the World! We will be reading lots of stories about people and families. The traditional tale for this half term is 'The Three Little Pigs'. We love sharing these lovely stories and will be acting them out in our home corner too. (Watch our for the Big Bad Wolf!)

Nursery children will be learning about the seasonal changes and Autumn weather! Autumn is a very active season and we love it when children bring in any Autumn leaves or other seasonal items they might find. We love being outdoors and whenever possible we will spend time learning in the fresh air, in our extended classroom. Please provide a suitable outdoor coat each day. The weather can be very changeable at this time of year so check the weather forecast and dress your child accordingly. We have a collection of umbrellas to use on rainy days too!

Very soon your child will be bringing home their first storybook in a school book bag. Please take time to share their book with them and make a comment in the reading diary provided! Reading with your child is a great way to encourage a love of books and develops so many skills, including language and communication. Book bags should be brought to school every day please.

Thank you for joining our Dojo class online! We try to post lots of lovely photos so you can see what the children have been learning whilst in Nursery. You can like and comment on our daily posts.

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. You can message us via Class Dojo or speak to us at the end of the school day.

Mrs. Suthern and Miss. Fleming
