🌟 Welcome Back! 🌟
Welcome back to Nursery! We hope you all had a wonderful half-term break and are ready for an exciting new half term ahead. 🍂😊
This week we will begin our new topic, Long Ago and Winter Wonderland ❄️✨. The children will be exploring the passing of time and learning about yesterday, today and tomorrow. We will be encouraging them to share their half-term experiences and talk about special memories with their friends.

In our Foundation Unit, we have a Word of the Week to help broaden the children’s vocabulary and develop their understanding of new words. We encourage the children to use these words in their play, conversations and learning throughout the week.
✨ Word of the Week: Sparkle ✨
📖 Talk for Writing
Our Talk for Writing text this half term will be Mr Wiggle and Mr Waggle, which we are very excited about! The children will be learning the story alongside actions to help them retell it confidently. We will be sharing videos of the actions on Tapestry over the coming weeks so that you can join in at home too.
We look forward to hearing all about your adventures from the holidays and beginning another exciting learning journey together! 💬😊
