If you have any concerns over your child’s speech development, I have shared a useful tracker tool for your reference.

Our Nursery Rhyme of the week….

5 little ducks Makaton

Our Nursery Rhyme of the week is 5 little ducks went swimming one day and if you click on the link above you will be able to view the Makaton signs to go along with the rhyme. Please point out the rhyming words to your child.

Singing rhymes with your child can impact their education as this aids their ability to hear sounds within words and identify other rhyming words. I will be gathering data on the children’s knowledge before it has been focused on and after and will share it’s impact on the blog in the near future.

Springhill Care Home

Some of the residents from Springhill came to visit us today. The children liked showing them what they like to play with at nursery.   They seemed to really enjoy themselves and were interested in the changes in the nursery environment since their day.  They are looking forward to coming back to see us.
