Nursery have had and amazing party day with lots of fun and laughter.

Well done to the Nursery children who shared their Christmas Nativity with their friends and family this afternoon.  They did an amazing performance as they sang and danced, we are so proud of them!

This week Melissa visited Nursery to talk about Road Safety.  We talked about holding hands when we cross the road, how we need to Look, Listen and Think, and how to use a Pelican Crossing.  We even took turns to role play crossing the road with a Lollipop Person.

This week the nursery children had a fantastic time during their Stay and Play Sessions with their families.  They shared their Learning Journals, made Diwali lights, birdfeeders, firework pictures and shared stories.  It was so much fun!

A group of our Nursery parents and carers came into school this morning to begin their Early Words Together workshops. The programme, delivered by South Tyneside Council Family Hubs, gives our parents and carers the chance to spend quality time with their child through a range of language and communication focused activities. This includes sharing books and stories, singing songs and rhymes, playing with letters and sounds and drawing as part of the early stages of learning to read and write. The first session was all about supporting talk through imaginative play, early years practitioners supported our group to develop listening skills and build vocabulary through shared talk and use of imagination. It was a lovely session filled with plenty of fun and lots of rich language.
