Summer 2 

Welcome to our final half term in Nursery! 

Our topic this half term is 

What lives under the sea? 

This half term we will be preparing to transition into Reception. We are excited to learn new routines and meet our new teachers. 

We are continuing to learn phonics through Floppy's Phonics and are beginning to recognise some initial letter sounds. 

Our newest children are now beginning to recognise and continue a rhyming string. 

We will be exploring which different animals live under the sea and taking on the role of Pirates. 

As always our children in early years learn and develop through a play based approach. 

We will be learning outdoors as much as possible, please remember to send children in appropriate clothing - 

Wellies

Sun hats 

Sun cream 

Jackets 

 Our Nursery graduation will take place on Tuesday 16th July 9am. 

We will also explore the 5 key concepts of prints. 

If you are one of our January starters we ask if you could please send your child in with a photograph of their family or post this to tapestry. Thank you in advance.
