What an exciting week!

Wow! what an exciting time we had in nursery last week! On Tuesday we had our first group afternoon and had lots of fun exploring new places! I wonder if anyone can remember which group they're in? Mrs Way's class are lions, monkeys and giraffes and Mrs Mertens' class are rabbits, hedgehogs and squirrels.

This week we will be celebrating Chinese New Year (3rd- 5th February). Mrs Way & Mrs Mertens have been planning lots of exciting things to explore and make! Mrs Way is planning a food tasting session and hopes everyone will try some Chinese food - otherwise Mrs Way, Mrs Thomas and Miss Bunt will have to eat it all! We will also be creating a Dragon Dance outside using some beautiful Chinese fabric.

Just a quick reminder - we have wet weather outfits for all the children but could your child please have a pair of wellies in school  (you're welcome to take them home on the weekend) as we're spending more time outdoors - regardless of the weather! also if you have any old wellies we'll gratefully take them off your hands to have as spares.

And we can't forget to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Mrs Watkins for Tuesday!

See you tomorrow!

(we work in groups on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday afternoons. It allows the children to mix together and spend time in our different areas. 1 group - outside, 3 groups - Mrs Mertens' building and 2 groups-Mrs Way's building. we work on a 2 week timetable so all groups experience each area )
