Welcome to our October blog.  We have had a fantastic month in nursery.

We continued our learning of traditional tales and finished the context with Little Red Riding Hood.  This was definitely one of the children’s favourite stories, they loved the songs and re-enacting the story.  We enjoyed a picnic in the nursery to celebrate the end of the context.

Many thanks to all the parents who sent in context evaluations!

‘I was Little Red Riding Hood.  The big, bad wolf was trying to chase me.’  Kaelyn

‘Bad wolf.  He eats grandma up.’  Grace

‘The woodcutter was best.  The wolf was never seen ever, ever again.’  Kayden

We celebrated Daniel’s birthday…

The children were brilliant at our obstacle course!

‘I walked on the bench by myself.’  Stuart

We are now going to be learning all about Autumn and have so far enjoyed a walk in the woods, painting and lots of talking, listening and sharing our ideas about Autumn.

Our focus for maths, literacy and health and wellbeing for this context are:

Maths – to create a simple pattern.

Literacy – to find information from a variety of sources.

Health and Wellbeing – to explore, prepare and taste a variety of foods.

We had a fantastic time at our Halloween party!
