Nursery

A very warm welcome to the second half of the spring term in Acorns! We hope you’ve had a good half-term and are looking forward to lots of fun activities over the coming weeks.

Please can we ask that your child continues to bring a water bottle each day and a bag with a spare change of clothes in case of accidents.

PE Information

Physical development is an important part of the EYFS curriculum and is planned for on a daily basis both inside and outdoors. We also have a PE session with Mrs Bradley on Wednesday mornings where the children enjoy a wide range of activities either in the hall or outside. Children do not require a PE kit for this session.

Extended Learning

For extended learning, you can support your child by:

  • Choosing some activities from the ‘Homework Grid’ (Activities can be brought into nursery, shared on Tapestry or emailed to nursery2023@lincolngardens.net)
  • Sharing stories, singing nursery rhymes and playing counting games

For more information on the ‘Read, Write, Inc.’ phonics scheme, please see; https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/reading/reading-schemes-oxford-levels/read-write-inc-phonics-guide/

Theme

Our theme for this half-term is called, ’Under the Sea’. We will be learning about The Great Barrier Reef, hermit crabs, turtles, blue whales and how to care for our seas and oceans. Our fictional stories will be linked to this theme and include ‘Sharing A Shell’ by Julia Donaldson. Alongside our theme, we will follow the interests and developing skills of the children.

If you have any questions or concerns, please speak to us at nursery or alternatively, e-mail us at nursery2023@lincolngardens.net

We look forward to getting to know you!

Many thanks

Mrs Salmon and Mrs Williams
