Snow fun

Well it’s a great day for it ! ❄️☃️
We’d love to see your little adventures and fun in the snow today if you get any chance safely to go out.
Please send us your photos through the evidence me app, we love looking at them and sharing them with the children. These days are rare !
I’ve been out already and seen some of your playing, nice to see the age old bin bag is still being used for Sledging! 😂❄️
Please see images below for some fun activities for suggestions on play in and with the snow.
But most of all have fun !

Snow day

Morning everyone!

As nursery is closed today we wanted to share some super snowy activities that you could take part in at home.  The first idea is to look for footprints in the snow, particularly footprints that different creatures may have made.  If you do find some, can you identify what might have made them?  Please follow the link for some support with this.  Your child’s keyworker would love to see any that you find using the evidence me app.  Happy hunting! https://pin.it/3XRsFfn

World Book Day and Safety week

” The more you read the more you know, the more
you learn the more places you will go”
Mighty Oaks 🌳
Celebrating World Book Day this week by dressing up and listening to the children’s favourite stories. On the day we made our very own book marks and had a look at some of the online videos of stories from this years Early years WBD Authors.📚
We’ve been talking about safety when walking by roads. They’ve followed the ‘ Stop, look and listen ‘ rule when role playing in the garden and on a little walk around the school grounds. 🚦🚶🏾
Following on from safety we talked about people who help us, some of those being the police. We were very lucky as we know they are busy to have a visit from our local CSO’s who gave the children a little talk about what they do and a look around the police car. 👮🏽
In our PE session with Cross Bar the coaches revisited what we had previously learned over the term, putting their listening and remembering skills into practice. 🎾
We thank you so much for your wonderful and creative efforts in dressing up.

Mother’s day stay and play

We are really excited to be holding a stay and play session on Thursday 16th March.  If your child attends on Thursdays, mums or nannies are invited to drop in at 8.30 or 12.20 for a short activity with your child.  We are hoping to decorate a gift and card ready for mother’s day, this will take approximately 30 minutes.  We’re really looking forward to seeing you.  Please don’t be concerned though if you are unable to attend as we will have lots of lovely activities for your child to take part in with their keyworker.

Pets

We have a very exciting visitor in nursery next week!  The animal man is coming on Friday to help us to learn how to look after pets.  Please can you support us with this by sharing any pets that you have at home via evidence me.  We will use these pictures to prompt the children to talk about them.  If you don’t have a pet don’t worry, you are equally welcome to send in pictures of friends or relatives pets too.

Thank you Lisa Curnow

World Book Day – Thursday 2nd March

Dear Parents and Carers, 

 This year’s World Book Day will take place on Thursday 2nd March with the theme “You are a reader!” 

 Due to the success of our last Book Swap Day, we will once more run a second-hand book swap shop. Children who bring in a book that they no longer want can swap it on the day (books in good condition only please).  

 As usual, we are all looking forward to seeing your child dressed up in costume as one of their favourite book characters. Teachers cannot wait to get involved too! 

 The World Book Day website has lots of ideas on how to do this with as much or as little effort as you would like. There are some excellent ideas to get you started: Dressing Up – World Book Day

However, children are equally welcome to come to school in their pyjamas all ready for a bedtime story if they prefer – just remind them to bring their favourite book too! 

 Your child will receive a £1 book token to spend on a FREE book, or to save £1 on another full price book of their choice. Full details are available at www.worldbookday.com where you can see the fabulous books that are on offer this year.  

 World Book Day is a super event to celebrate reading, but reading to and with your child is important every single day to ensure your child can learn to their fullest potential. We would love to see photos of you reading with your child – please stick them into your child’s reading diary if you can! 

Happy reading, 

 Mrs Thomas 

Literacy Coordinator
