Nursery Rhymes
Nursery rhymes are important for young children because they help develop an ear for language. Both rhyme and rhythm help children hear the sounds and syllables in words, which helps children learn to read! The teachers have chosen some nursery rhymes for you to share with your child. There are links to the rhymes on You tube if you are unfamiliar with them. Enjoy!

Weekly Class Updates
2025/2026 Nursery
Autumn Term 1, Week 4 - W/c 22.09.25
This week, we have continued to learn our new routines and form friendships with some of our peers. We have talked about our facial features and have drawn our own faces. We have also started looking at our family photos and talking about our family members. We made representations of our families with the small figures.
Outside, we have enjoyed making small obstacle courses and have been practising our travelling and balancing skills whilst walking over crates and planks. We have also played in our role play shed which was a tea shop this week.

Autumn Term 1, Week 3 - W/c 15.09.25
Our first full week of nursery has been a massive success and we are all so proud of how the children have settled into our Holtsmere community!
We have spent the week getting to know everyone's names; learn the different areas of the classroom and garden, and explore these areas; learn which groups we are in; and understand how to be a good listener (crossed legs, quiet lips, listening ears and hands in laps). We have also talked about keeping our environments safe by tidying away our toys when we have finished. We have learnt the phrase 'Choose it, use it, put it away' and will continue to practice this over the next few weeks.
