We shall be building new friendship groups and routines. 

Our story theme is based on a book called “Maisy goes to nursery” you can find out about our daily and weekly activities and how you can support your child at home.  

This will be  located on the board outside nursery.

This week in Reception we will continue to settle in the children as they all attend together building up to longer days by the end of the week. We are looking forward to the children having their first school lunch on Wednesday. We are also going to be learning the names of places around school e.g dining hall, office as well as the names of important people. We will then be making our own maps of the school.
