Summer 1

This half term in Ladybird nursery our area of focus will be 'People who help us'. The children will take part in lots of hands on and creative activities around this topic. As always in nursery our aim is to follow children's interest so learning, topics and activities can change all the time! 

Focused book's for this term are: 

Week 1 - Who's hat is this?
Week 2- Superheroes like you 
Week 3 - Real Superheroes 
Week 4 - On the way home
Week 5 - Busy people Polic Officer 
Week 6 - Busy people Fire Officer 

In our adult led focus we will be playing lots of games that will promote the children's communication and language development.

We will be sharing lots of their favourite stories and singing lots of rhymes too!

Forest school is on a Friday.  Children are to wear their forest school uniform and must bring a coat and a pair of wellies as the forest can be very muddy!

Please remember that your child will need a named changing bag with a spare change of clothes and will need to have plenty of nappies, wipes and cremes if needed. They will also need a named water bottle.
