Nursery News
3rd July 2020
Dear Parents/Carers,
We hope you are all still well and safe. How is the home schooling going so far? Hope these plans are helping. We are giving a few suggestions so that you can also pick and choose, so please don’t feel obliged to complete all – we understand how hard it can be. The most important thing you can do with your child is play with them, talk to them, have fun with them!
Here are some useful websites that we use in Nursery and that we have discovered during the past few weeks – we hope they help?
Phonics
For activities in our planning, we will put page numbers for you to refer to in
Phonics: DFE Letters and Sounds documentation. Click on the green button.
Number Formation
These number formation rhymes help children to learn to write numbers. We had done up to number 4 in school, but the children may need to go over these again. Click on the green button.

Come and See
Universal Church - Our World
What we love and wonder about our world; God gave us a wonderful world.
What we love and wonder about our world; God gave us a wonderful world.
This work comes from the Come and See Religious Education programme which is taught in all Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Liverpool. We have given a general guide to the learning opportunities that your child may have come across in school and have only suggested and selected a small amount of the programme. The activities aim to keep Religious Education practical and fun. They are in Year groups however, there is no harm in completing other year group work as this will help your child to remember and strengthen their learning.
The first part of learning is called – EXPLORE. This shares your child’s everyday experiences and helps them to see how the Catholic faith is lived in their everyday lives. The second part, called – REVEAL shares bible stories that links to their everyday life.
Please note that the activities have been adapted as far as possible to adhere to social distancing guidelines.
What we love and wonder about our world; God gave us a wonderful world.

Wear A Kit For Jack Day

On Friday July 10th we are holding our annual 'wear a kit for Jack' fundraising day. We would like our children to wear a sports kit of their choice and post a picture to our Instagram page, back view or face obscured, with the tag line, 'I'm wearing my kit for Jack'.
Children who are coming to school should also come in a sports kit.

Thanking you in anticipation of your generosity.
