This week, our challenge in the classroom was to write our own ‘helicopter story’. The children embraced this and we had some fantastic story telling with some beautiful story language. Many of the children began their story with ‘once upon a time’. Over the course of the week, the children brought their stories to me and read what they had written. On Wednesday, we all gathered around the stage to hear each other’s stories. All of the children were keen to participate and we had some wonderful acting as we took on the characters from the story. At the end, all of the actors took a bow and the audience clapped.
A couple of reminders for next week, as we have a busy week ahead! I look forward to welcoming all parents and carers into Nursery on Monday afternoon at 2.15pm for a Stay and Play session. Also, we are all very excited for Tuesday, when Circurama will be coming into Early Years to teach Nursery and Reception some circus skills! Please ensure your child comes to school in appropriate footwear (no wellies or opened toed sandals please). The sun finally seems to have its hat on, therefore, please can you ensure that during sunny, warm weather, your child comes to school having sun cream already applied and has a sun hat and water bottle in school. Thank you. Enjoy the glories weather, and see you all on Monday for an action packed week!
