Welcome back

Welcome back to Nursery and we hope you all had a lovely Easter break.

This week we have begun thinking about our new topic 'Wonders of the World' by reading the Creation Story and thinking about all the wonders in our world. The children have been drawing pictures and attempting to write about them, as well as making their own worlds by painting and using collage.

The children are enjoying using the new Post Office role play. We're sure many of you have been receiving lots of letters this week. It has been lovely seeing the children so excited about their mark making. We are going on a Village Walk next Thursday 28th April and hoping to include a visit to the Post Office. If you are able to help please let a member of the team know. Thank you to those who have already offered to help.

Our outdoor area is developing and we have now got our den making area up and running. The children are experimenting with building and creating their own dens.

We have also moved some of the groups around to encourage the children to mix with other peers and to get them used to different staff members. We hope the children have enjoyed changing groups, but if you have any concerns please speak to one of the team.

Next week we will be learning about Redbourn and the children will be encouraged to talk about what they already know about Redbourn, their house, street and family. We will also be asking them to think of questions about what they would like to find out about Redbourn - who, what, when, how.

Our sound of the week this week was 'l'. Next week it is 'ss'.

Our rhyme of the week is 'Hey Diddle Diddle.'
