A Parent Guide to Cygnets Nursery
What we will learn
We will be following the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework and ensure our learning allows children to develop their skills in the seven areas of learning:
- Communication and Language
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
- Physical Development
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Understanding of the World
- Expressive Arts and Design
Our programme of learning will follow the needs and interests of our children and will be carefully organsied so that they make the progress they need in order to be ready for their next steps in learning.
Have a look at our Nursery curriculum overview at the bottom of the page and have a look on Tapestry to see what we have been up to.
What are we learning at the moment - Welcome to Autumn 2
Welcome back to nursery for Autumn 2
This half term we will be learning about our wonderful families and how special they are. The children will work on their oracy skills through mini hot seat activities where we explore topic of families.
Later in the term we will talk about Christmas story and go to visit St Mary’s church to find out about this Christian tradition when baby Jesus was born. Cygnets will be also busy preparing for their Christmas play and singing beautiful songs. We have planned a lot of exciting and meaningful experiences for the children and cannot wait to share it with you on Tapestry, so please do check and contribute.
Here are our books that we will be reading this term :
Please make sure you are providing coat for the children as it’s getting cold now, wellies can stay in school for weekly woodland walk.
This half term, we will have physical activity on Thursday afternoons. Please can the children wear joggers/leggings and trainers? There is no need for full PE kit.
On Fridays, we will go for a welly walk. Please bring some wellies in a named bag so that they can be kept in school. We are happy to return them for half term.
Please check the learning posters and Tapestry each week. Feel free to post your adventures at home on tapestry. We will share these in class.
