As a Rights Respecting School, we have made a class charter that everyone has signed as a promise to respect each others’ rights.

These are the five things we all do to make nursery a great place to learn:

We are kind.

We listen carefully.

We keep ourselves and others safe.

We keep nursery clean and tidy.

We try our best.

Take a look at our charter next time you are in our class. What can you do to respect others’ rights?

Nursery had a wonderful time on Thursday helping Sara dig up the nursery garden. Lots of potatoes and carrots had grown over the summer, as well as some fresh parsley. We harvested the crops then everyone helped to make some soup in the microwave, making sure we washed our hands and the vegetables thoroughly.

While the children were digging, they discovered lots of garden wildlife, including caterpillars, worms, slugs and two frogs or toads! We thought they were toads because their skin was dry, but they hopped instead of walking. Have a look at the photos and see if you can help us identify what they are, and leave us a comment on this post.

Talking points:
What did the parsley smell like?
How did we make soup?
Where do frogs and toads live?
What do you think they eat?

Well done to everyone who started nursery this week! The class have settled in beautifully and really enjoyed getting to know each other and Miss Dace and Sara.

Please check the class blog regularly to see what we are up to in class, and post your own comments too.

Below are the class letter and curriculum map for this half term, which will be sent home soon.
