All ready!

Hi all. It's the start of the new academic year, and we're all ready to go!

This year we welcome a new face to the Foundation Stage staff.



Terri Bentley has been appointed as our new nursery teacher for the afternoons. Ms Bentley has many years teaching experience working across the age ranges, and is going to be a valuable asset to the school. Welcome aboard!

You will also see some familiar faces working in nursery...


Mrs Stott (me!) will be teaching the morning sessions in nursery. I tell the children it's so I can go home for a little sleep - if only!


 Mrs Barber will continue to be the teaching assistant for both morning and afternoon sessions. She clearly has much more energy than everyone else. We don't know how she does it!


Mrs Cooper is our HLTA, and she will be coming in to nursery to cover whilst the teachers have their Planning, Preparation and Assessment (PPA) time. We very much hope that we can borrow her on other occasions too!

The learning environment is all set for the children to come and explore...

The maths area...


The sand area...


The water area...


The cutting and sticking area...


The construction...


The easels...


The writing table...


The colouring and creative area...


The malleable area...


  We have a new reading tent which will hopefully help some children to enjoy books...


Our 'Author of the Term' area. This half term we will be reading books by Mick Inkpen...


Our jigsaw area...


Our 'small world' areas...



Our role play area...


The childrens' name cards are all waiting to be collected...


and deposited here...


And here is the cloakroom. I think this may be the first and last time it will be tidy!
