The Singing Mermaid

This week we are reading the story "The Singing Mermaid" by Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks. We will be listening for the rhyming words in the story. The mermaid goes to the circus so we will be practising circus skills in the outdoor area. It is also the Big Toddle this week, so we are talking about what we did and what we saw in our Talk Time afterwards.

On Monday a bottle appeared in our classroom beach with a message inside. They are appearing all over the Nursery this week too! We will be writing replies to the messages. We are going to use our plastic bottles to make a memory bottle to take home at the end of the year. We will be singing like the mermaid in the story and creating a brand new tail for her using our collaging skills!

Ways to help at home this week

Sing songs and nursery rhymes together. What is your favourite song? Sing along to songs on the radio or TV. If you are stuck for ideas the CBeebies website has a song section.

What's coming up next week?

Wednesday, 26th June is Sports Day for Reception to Year 6. Nursery do not take part in Sports Day but if you would like to take your child to watch the older children you are very welcome to do so. Please speak to a member of staff for more details. Please note: Sports Day is dependent on the weather!

Big Toddle

Can you please collect Big Toddle sponsor money and bring it to Nursery along with the sponsor form by Wednesday, 3rd July? Thank you!
