It’s so hard to believe that we are already here in the final week of term! It has been a really wonderful term packed full of playing, laughter and lots of smiles!
We are so proud of each and everyone of the children; they have all grown a little bit more everyday; not just physically, but also in terms of their self-confidence and independence.
We hope everyone has a wonderfully restful and peaceful Christmas and we look forward to welcoming the children back to Nursery in January. There will be 7 new children joining us when we return.
PLEASE NOTE:
The Nursery Christmas Party will take place during the normal morning Nursery session this week on Wednesday 18th December. If your child would like to wear a Christmas jumper that day or a special party dress, please feel free to send them into school wearing this. If they would prefer to come to Nursery in their normal clothes that is also absolutely fine! If you do choose to send them in in something special, please remember it will be a normal, messy morning in Nursery!
The Christmas Party is a chance for us to celebrate with our Reception friends. We will spend about an hour in the big hall where we will play party games and do some dancing! We will also be having some party food and drinks and we would be most grateful for any contributions you may be able to make towards this (please see the list of suggested contributions in the classroom). Thank you!
The last day of term for Nursery will be this Thursday 19th December. This is also the last day for the Little Acorns. Children in Nursery break up one day earlier than the rest of the school so we can hold an Open morning for the new children starting in January.
The first day back for the children will be Wednesday 8th January. This is also the first day back for the Little Acorns. Again, we start back a little later than the rest of the school so that we can carry out home visits for the new children.
Thank you for your understanding.
As you may have noticed, the classroom is now looking decidedly festive! Here are a few photos from last week…
Here’s our Christmas Post Office & Sorting Centre – the children have been hard at work, wrapping parcels, writing Christmas cards, stamping parcels and letters, posting them and even delivering them around the classroom. It certainly feels like the busiest time of the year!
The large wooden car received yet another makeover this week…can you guess what it might be and who it might belong to…?
Our placing & arranging table was brimming with an inviting array of Christmassy colours and objects. The children love to spend a quiet moment at this table which is always a feast for the senses…can you spot the snowman with his scarf?
The polar bears were out in force roaming around their snowy landscape. At one point, they decided they wanted to roam further afield and come down from the table top onto the carpet. It was a bit too far for them to jump but, luckily, the Nursery children were on hand to come up with some ingenious construction ideas to help them get down – well done Nursery, you are always so kind and friendly!
Have a lovely weekend everyone! We are looking forward to the final four days of festive fun!
