Summer 1 2026
Our Nursery children have delighted in our “Once Upon a Rhyme” topic, exploring a different nursery rhyme each week, including “Incy Wincy Spider”, “Hickory Dickory Dock”, and “Jack and Jill”.
The children particularly enjoyed building Humpty Dumpty’s wall and investigating eggs. They also became part of the Grand Old Duke of York’s 10,000 men, marching enthusiastically up and down the hill.
In maths, the children have explored sequencing, compared different sizes, and investigated the properties of 2D and 3D shapes.
These rhyming activities are laying important foundations for future reading success by developing the children’s phonological awareness.
To mark the 100th birthday of David Attenborough, the Nursery children also made wildflower seed bombs. We are excited to return to the area where they were planted and watch them begin to grow.
