Olympic Flags
The younger Nursery children have been painting flags this week and have made some beautifully collaged Olympic rings that are displayed in the classroom. They have also been working as a team to make a huge Olympic torch in 3D. The older classes have made individual Olympic torches and been learning numbers 1-20 by playing number games with miniature Olympic torches at circle time. The children in Mrs Lumley’s class decided they wanted to make a big 3D Queen Elizabeth so had lots of fun with newspaper and wallpaper paste creating a papier Mache bust of Her Majesty to display read the full post »
FRENCH DAY
Last week’s Newsletter left off the Younger Nursery from this event – apologies! All children are involved from Younger Nursery to Year 4 inclusive in the concert to parents at 9am in the Sports Hall. If your Nursery child does not usually attend on Fridays, they may arrive at the normal time and be ready for collection after the performance, at about 9.45am. Looking forward to seeing you all in ‘French clothes’!
London 2012
As you may have noticed, Pre-Prep & Nursery are all celebrating the same topic this term – London 2012, including the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics. Bunting, portraits of the Queen, the River Thames, maps of the London Underground, buses, taxis – all appearing in every conceivable format around the Pre-Prep! Many of the children made wonderful scrap books over the holidays which are displayed on tables in the department .… please do take some time to browse through them: the information gathered, collages made, photographs reproduced and (in Tali’s case) 3 whole books made out of red paper bags! read the full post »

Red Riding Hood
The younger Nursery classes read the story of Red Riding Hood and made some lovely baskets and scary wolves. They have had lots of fun acting out the story in the woods.
A Coach House Pet Shop
The older Nursery classes have been learning all about pets. Mrs Lumley’s home corner was transformed into the Coach House Pet Shop. The children have had lots of fun buying and selling cat, dog and rabbit food as well as looking after Pinky and Perky the guinea pigs all week. Mrs Bohills brought Horace the tortoise to school with her on Wednesday and he had a lovely day being introduced to the children and nibbling dandelion leaves in the pen! On Tuesday Ella’s mummy visited us with her “vet’s hat” on, and brought Norman the golden Labrador with her. All the read the full post »
Mother’s Day Assembly
The older Classes took part in the Mother’s Day assembly on Thursday and we were all delighted with how well they sang their special songs and recited their prayers and poems to their Mummies! Happy Mothers’ Day to all the Mummies in the Coach House Nursery! If you would like another copy of the service sheet, please click on the link. Mothers Day Service Nursery & Reception
