Welcome to Nursery!

Welcome to our Nursery!  Here you will find information about our topic for the term and useful links to resources which might help you at home with your child.

Spring 1

Our topic this half-term is

‘Superheroes’.

 

Our topic this half term is ‘Superheroes’.  We are going to be exploring the concept of heroes – those with super powers and those who we meet in our every day lives.  We will even host our very own Superhero Day where children can come to Nursery dressed as a superhero!  Our key texts for this half term include Frozen, Superworm, 10 Little Superheroes and Supertato.  We will continue learning about the season of Winter.

We will be visiting our on-site woodland once a fortnight to help us to learn about seasons.  Details of when we’re visiting will be on our dates list.

If you have any questions or anything you want to discuss with us, please chat to us at drop off and pick up times, or send us a message on dojo.

We are excited to share our learning with you.

Here are our key dates for this half term:
