Welcome to Nursery!

Welcome to Nursery. We hope your child is excited to start school and is looking forward to the year ahead. There will be lots of learning through play and songs, group work and independent work. There will be a lot of practice at counting, number recognition, adding and subtracting, reading and writing.

If you wish to discuss any matters with your child's teacher please feel free to see us during drop off or pick up times. You can also e mail the school and we will reply as soon as we can.

Please remember to label your child's snack. Your child does not need a water bottle for Nursery.

P.E day will be a Monday. Please can you send your child to school in their P.E kit including trainers. Some days we will be going outside and your child will require wellies. but we will let you know before hand.

Please could you label everything that comes into school. As this makes it easier for when we are getting ready for home time. 

Can you please send your child to Nursery with a coat everyday.

Every Friday a child will be bringing home Ticw. We would like you to write a little about what you have done over the weekend. We would love to see a couple of photos too. Ticw is learning to speak Welsh and if you could include a few Welsh words and phrases too that would be fantastic.

The Class page will be updated regularly. With things we have been doing within Nursery.

Diolch and Thank you

Dates for the Diary 

The children have settled into Nursery well over the last two weeks. They have enjoyed exploring all the areas within the classroom.

Our Topic is Me,Myself and I 

Over the next 6 weeks we will be talking about our likes and dislikes. The children will be taking turns to share their news. We will be looking at where and who we live with. We will be sharing pictures of our homes. Through doing this we will be looking at 2D shapes, and if we have 2D shapes in our homes.

We are looking at colours and which is our favourite colour. We will be doing this through using the story of the “Colour Monster”.

Nursery will be counting and recognising numbers to 5 forwards and backwards through songs and activities. We will learning how to put our coats on independently, Nursery will be practicing by putting our coats on when go outside and at home time. 
We will be starting to recognise and write our own names, we will be doing this through activities and using different techniques. 
At the end of October we will be looking at Autumn Days and celebrating Harvest. We will look at how the weather changes, looking at the trees losing leaves and the different colours. we will be reading the book “The Little Red Hen”. We will look at where our food come from and how to be helpful. We will be baking bread, just like “The Little Red Hen”. 
We have started using Welsh phrases, Yma when doing the registration and Sut mae’r Tywydd heddiw? What’s the weather like today?

Things to help your children at home.

* Practicing putting their coats on.

* Counting to 5 this can be done through songs and counting things around the home.

* Recognising and starting to write their own name, this can be done using shaving form, whiteboards, papers and pens.
