Welcome to Nursery!

 

Staff

The nursery staff are:

We hope you and your child will be very happy here.  We aim to help your child prepare for the world of education and value your support and collaboration (after all no-one knows your child as well as you do!) If you have anything you want to talk to us about please do; one of us is always available at the start or end of sessions, so don't hesitate to speak to us.

 

You can also email the school office at office@stjosephs.rbksch.org or the class email page on nursery@stjosephs.rbksch.org and we will be happy to help.

Our motto (chosen by the children) is "sharing is caring"

 

Our prayers are:

God made the Earth, and God made the sky,

God made the fish and the birds that fly,

God made the flowers and God made the trees,

God made EVERYTHING and God made ME!

Amen.

 

and

 

Oh my God I give to you, 

All that I think and say and do.

All my words and my happy play,

I will give to God today.

Amen.

 

If you would like more information please let us know.

 

Reading and Book Bags

 

The children will get one book on Tuesday. The book will be in your child's book bag.

 

Please read to them every night so they can share the stories with us and their friends. 

 If you would like a bilingual story, please ask and we will try to get something suitable. 
 

When you are reading with your child you can help them to improve their understanding by discussing what they have read.

1)Ask them questions about the text, their ideas about what could happen next or whether they are enjoying the book.

2)Encourage them to tell you what stories and information they have understood from the text. 

3)Discuss their opinions about how things might be different in stories or in the world.

 

Many of the home reading books have ideas for activities in the front or back cover of the book.

 

Physical Education

The morning children will have their PE session on Tuesday and the afternoon children will have their PE session on Thursday.

Please make sure the children are wearing socks, no tights.

Water bottles

Please ensure that your child brings their own water bottle into school every day. Please label the water bottle.
