Pepa Tots

A warm welcome to all our new little children, as well as a hearty welcome back to our returning children. We trust that you’ve had a delightful summer break and are now prepared for the exciting year that lies ahead.

This week, our primary focus will be on helping children settle into the nursery routine, become familiar with the nursery environment and establish new friendships and relationships with staff.

As you can see from the pictures, the children have been having a wonderful time exploring indoors and outdoors.

To ensure their wellbeing, we kindly request that you pack a spare set of clothes in their bags. This will come handy for any unforeseen accidents or when engaging in wet or messy play.  Additionally, we would appreciate it if you could provide a pair of wellington boots that can be kept at the nursery.  We are very thrilled for the weeks ahead and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to assist your child in their remarkable journey this year. 

Maya Angelou Class

Year 3 have had a blast this week!  We have done a range of different activities in class and we have all settled in well.  We have begun our KS2 learning, where we can use our knowledge of previous years to support us. 

We have learnt some new things, such as rocks and the different rocks that can be found.Year 3, we were lucky as on Thursday 7th we had a 3D rocks workshop where we learnt about rocks, what they were and where different rocks are found. The 3D glasses added a nice touch to rock learning!

On Tuesday, we had our very first PE lesson with a qualified coach, where we learnt a new sport called hockey. Mr Paton taught us how to dribble, stop and what side of the hockey stick we should be using. As the weather is still nice in September we have been able to do our end of day story time outside and have enjoyed being in the shade with a nice breeze.
