  1. Welcome to Nursery Parent’s meet and greet – Friday 28th September

  2. Meet the nursery team Key workers • Your child will have been assigned to a key worker, which is on our display. • When you have any questions or concerns you can initially speak with your child’s key worker. • However, all practitioners will form part of your child’s learning journey throughout their time in nursery. • Your child’s class teacher will still be responsible for their progress and education.

  3. Learning • Each term we have a themed topic – Autumn 1 = All about me Autumn 2 = People who help us Spring 1 = Space Spring 2 = Animals Summer 1 = Transport Summer 2 = Pirates • We assess your children’s learning through observations of their daily activities. • We note in particular the learning demonstrated spontaneously, independently and consistently. • Evidence of your children’s learning is collected through photographs, written observations and examples of their work. • We welcome any comments from you about your child’s learning at home. Special Books • We record your child’s learning journey in their special book which covers the seven areas of learning. • We will invite you to look at your child’s special books regularly

  4. Work Week • In the week 3rd December we will have our annual ‘Work Week’. • This year we would like to invite parents to come into school and talk about their work and what they do. • Please let class teachers know if you are able to do so.

  5. School Policy Uniform • Uniform is required for all children from nursery up to Year 6. • Uniform can be bought from the front office on Monday morning. • Children should wear trainers/plimsols and jogging bottoms to school on Thursday for Gym Tots. • Sensible shoes. If your child wears wellingtons to school, they will need to have a change of shoe for in the classroom. • Weather can be unpredictable, please make sure your child has a coat or sweater for outside. • Please label all clothes with your child’s name. • Please bring a set of spare clothes and expect that your child will get wet and/or messy quite often – it is part of their learning! • Please ensure your child has a book bag which they should bring to school every day.

  6. School Healthy Eating Policy Healthy eating • Fruit, vegetables, milk & water are available throughout the sessions. • You can bring bottled water – please do not bring flavoured water, juice, fizzy drinks etc. • Please label bottles with your child’s name. • Only healthy snacks should be brought for birthday treats – and/or donate a book to nursery.

  7. Attendance and Punctuality • Our target is 96% attendance – we will post the weekly attendance on the parents board. • You will need to inform the school if your child is going to be absent. You will need a letter from the doctor if your child is absent for 3 days or more. Any children who drop below 95% will be called in for a meeting. • You will need to inform us if you are going to be late. On occasions that you are late you will need to drop or pick up your child from the front desk. You will also need to sign a late book. Children who are more then 3 times will be called by a Learning Mentor. • Please ensure that anyone picking your child up, is 16 or older. • Nursery morning session is from 8:45 – 11:45 and afternoon sessions are from 12:15 – 3:15. Please be punctual especially at pick up time, because children of this age become very distressed when left waiting. • We teach the children to wait on the carpet for a nursery adult to call their name. Please do not beckon or call your child. We need to dismiss them safely.

  8. Parental involvement • Homework and Projects • Story books • Friday shared reading (8.45 - 9.00am nursery & 12:15 – 12:30 pm nursery) • Stay and play sessions • 50p donations • MAGIC Certificate Habits at home • Parent Planning • Class Bear Diary • Parent Workshops

  9. Friendship Friday • On the last Friday of every month we celebrate Friendship! • A child in every class is given a certificate for showing good friendship to others. • We ask that all children wear Denim Jeans on Friendship Friday- it is not a non-uniform day. • We will give all children a Friendship T-Shirt to keep in school for Friendship Friday. • You will be sent a text to remind you of Friendship Friday.

  10. Motivation Positive Attitude Gumption Independence Communication Peter Used – Independence When he washed his hands all on his own.

  11. Supporting your child to make the right choices • We will explain the class rules to your children • Children will all begin on the grass. • When they show good behaviour, make good choices and/or are using their MAGIC, they will move up to a flower. They can continue to move up until they reach the sunflower. • At the end of the session, we will celebrate the children’s achievements. Children on a flower will receive a sticker and if they reach the sunflower they will also receive a certificate. • There are also consequences for when children make the wrong choices. • First they will be given a reminder of the choice they should have made and we use the visuals to explain. • If they continue to make the wrong choice, they move on to the sad, rainy cloud. • If they make a third wrong choice, they need to go into the thinking corner, to reflect on their mistake (3 minutes). • If they continue to make wrong choices they will have a time out in another class and we will talk to you about how to help us to support your child’s behaviour.

  12. Spotlight Certificates • Each Friday the spotlight will be on one particular child in the class. • We will celebrate something that the child has achieved that week. • We will ensure that every child in the class will have been celebrated by the end of the year. • The spotlight child will receive 2 certificates. One for their Special Book and one to take home. • They will also choose a reward from our gift box. • Please make a big fuss when your child achieves their certificate. Share it with family and friends. Display it where everyone can see.
