Nursery Autumn Term 1

Our focus in term 1 is to ensure all children feel settled and happy, and have made new friends. Our Term 1 PSHE focus is getting to know the children, them getting to know us, each other and the new environment. There will be lots of teaching about how to socialise, share and learn with each other.

Our main themes are colours, autumn and harvest. We will be celebrating harvest with the children in October, making scarecrows and a giant printed field with collage vegetables. We will be learning lots of harvest songs for our festival so listen out for those! We will also be cooking our harvest loaf and bread hedgehogs!

Nursery Autumn Term 2

Term 2 is always a really busy and exciting term! Our themes for this term are Diwali, light/dark, fire safety and, of course, Christmas! We will be learning festive songs and rhymes to sing together, and sharing the story of the first Christmas. Listen out for the songs at home! There will be various special events/projects including a trip to the local church, and some ‘special cooking.’

Nursery Spring Term 1

Our themes this term are Jack and the Beanstalk, growth and Easter. We will be enjoying traditional tales, planting our beans and grass. We will be dipping into our pond for frogspawn and watching the eggs change! We will enjoy spring crafts and have our Easter egg hunt! Lots to learn this term and opportunities to develop our understanding of the world, working and learning together and retelling stories.
