Spring 1

OUR LEARNING THIS HALF-TERM

This half term, our learning will focus on the changing weather and seasons as we move from autumn into winter. The children will explore the world around them, noticing how the environment changes and talking about the clothes we wear in colder weather.

Our talk for writing story this term is The Enormous Turnip. We'll be joining in with repeated phrases, retelling the story using actions, and exploring exciting activities linked to this tale.

OUTDOOR LEARNING

In Nursery, we value outdoor learning as an important part of child development. Spending time outdoors supports physical development, wellbeing, curiosity and learning through real life experiences in all weathers. To ensure that children can fully enjoy outdoor play safely and comfortably, please make sure your child comes to Nursery in weather appropriate clothing and suitable footwear each day.
