The weather might not be great, but we are loving outdoor play!
It’s a wild, wet, windy Wednesday

Library Visit
The pre school children in the Yellow, Red and Orange group enjoyed a Bookbug session at the library. A huge thank you to all the parent helpers who allow us to go on these visits. Watch out for more upcoming visits.
It’s a terrific Tuesday in nursery today.
Activities to try at home
I hope everyone is having a great September Weekend!
Just in case you are looking for any activities to do at home, I thought I would share a few simple ideas.
Counting
Using a cereal box, scissors, a pen and some pegs I made these simple number cards. Encourage your child to count out the number of pegs that they need. Then attach them to the card.
Here, I used an egg box, pen and some pasta. I wrote numbers in the sections of the box and your child can try to count out pasta pieces to match the number.
Using toy blocks you can encourage your child to build towers or whatever they would like.
Below I have used them to create a simple pattern. Encourage your child to try and create their own patterns.
You may also wish to use the Top Marks website for some maths games that your child could play which reinforce counting, numbers, shapes and money etc.
Enjoy!

Library Book Bug Visit
The pre school children from the Blue, Purple and Green Group had a wet and windy walk to the library this morning for a Bookbug session. They had great fun listening to the story of ‘Monkey and Me’ and participating in singing games.

Mrs Rafay had our first Bookbug session for this year with some of the ante pre children. 💚
Library Visits
Over this year the children will all be invited to visit the library. The first visit has been organised for pre school children who attend nursery on Tuesday 19th September and are in the Blue, Green and Purple Groups. Please provide appropriate clothing for walking. Thank you 💛
Our makaton word of the week
We will be learning a makaton sign each week. The sign of the week will be displayed on our planning blackboard and we hope the children will share this with you and you will join in. This week the sign is for ‘good morning’. Click link below to watch 💛
