Hello Everyone,
There was great excitement on Monday with the arrival of snow which the children loved playing in. Father Paul also paid us a visit on Monday to introduce himself to the children and to talk about how he helps us and the community. We introduced our advent calendar on Wednesday so the children are waiting in anticipation each day to see if their name is pulled out of the box to be the recipient of the chocolate coin. This week we have also been making beautiful gold and silver stars for our Christmas cards and decorating purple advent candles.
Next week we will continue to sing our christmas songs ready to perform them to the dementia group on 16th December. We will start our ‘Nursery Rhyme of the Week’ and learning our new phonemes when we return after Christmas. Our trip to Ash End Farm on Monday should be a great experience for the children. The weather forecast is very cold so make sure the children are wrapped up warm and although most of the areas are under cover it would be advisable if the children wear wellies ( with several pairs of socks), boots or sturdy shoes. We will be taking flasks of hot chocolate and squash so the children are able to have a warm drink. The children have been practising a Christmas dance which is being filmed on Tuesday so could the children wear their pyjamas to Nursery on Tuesday (any pyjamas – they don’t have to be Christmas ones.) Next week we will also be finishing our Christmas cards and doing Christmas crafts. Have a good weekend and keep warm!
The Nursery Team
