Halloween Dress Up Day – Monday

We can’t wait for you to have a look at our Halloween themed nursery when you come in this week. We have also planned some spooktacular activities throughout the week.

 

On Monday we are going to have a few Halloween themed party games and snacks as well and if your child would like to join us in dressing up in any costume they like (Halloween, superhero or any other costume or accessories you may have) they are more than welcome to.

Looking forward to seeing you then

Lending Library

Our Lending Library is now ready and we are very excited about launching it this week. We have chosen a selection of engaging and motivating books to enhance your child’s literacy skills.

Your child will be taken by the nursery staff to collect a book of their choice. The title of the book will be noted down by the staff and placed in your Lending Library bag, along with a comments form for you to complete. This will then be given to you when you collect your child from nursery.library

Please make sure the book is returned to us in good condition the following week to make sure your child can pick a new book to take home. Why don’t you …add character voices, take turns retelling the story, act the story out, point to details on the page, discuss your favourite part….but most of all…ENJOY YOUR BOOK!

 

Lending Library Days:

Monday – Green group

Tuesday – Yellow group

Wednesday – Red group

Thursday – Blue group

Friday – Purple group

Show and Tell

As you may know we launched our Show and Tell on Thursday and this was a great success. The children were very excited talking about the item they brought in. This ranged from favourite toys, costumes, photographs and special objects that they wanted their nursery friends to see.

We will continue Show and Tell every Thursday. Please add your special item to the children’s basket according to their group colour.  Thank you for helping your child prepare for this and building their confidence.toys

Late Log

Our nursery times are:

Monday-Thursday

Morning 8.10am – 11.16am

Afternoon 12.09pm – 4.06pm

 

Friday

Morning 8.10am – 11.38am

 

In order for the staff to plan, prepare and create an inspiring nursery, please ensure your child is collected no later than these times. Our doors are open 15 minutes before this to allow you to do this. Late pick ups really impact our training and preparation times and a late log is now being kept to alert parents to this.

Thank you for you on-going supportclock

 

 

Show and Tell on Thursday

SHOW AND TELL  –  Thursday

We are launching Show and Tell on Thursday. If your child would like to bring in a toy to show their nursery friends please place it in their basket at the door. The basket will be the same as their group colour. Mrs Wilson will be at the door should you need any help.

We aim to get through as many as we possibly can, but if we don’t get round to sharing your toy this week we will make sure your child is able to do so next week.

Please remind your child that the toy will only be for Show and Tell and not for playing with in case it gets mixed up with our nursery toys.

Thank you for your help. We look forward to seeing your favourite toy on Thursday!

Happy Holidays

We hope everyone has a lovely holiday.

A couple of wee reminders  –

There is a Halloween Party for the children on Monday 31st. Children can dress up (no masks) and join in all the fun activities.

Please bring snack money every Monday (or pay a lump sum). It is £1.50 or £2 if you are willing to give a donation towards the nursery resources.

Welcome Back!

We hope you all had a lovely summer and are enjoying the September break!

At nursery we are busy welcoming all our children back and settling in our new starts too! Our returners are enjoying being role models for the new children starting!

We have really appreciated your patience and support as our new team members have learned the routines of the nursery. We are all looking forward to working with you and your children over this session.
