Nursery
Autumn 2
We have two half-term topics for Autumn 2: Light and Dark and Let's Celebrate!
The children will be learning about: Diwali, Remembrance Day, Bonfire Night and Christmas.
During Autumn 2 they will also have a Nursery Rhyme Week when they will build on the Nursery rhymes they have learnt already:
- Humpty Dumpty,
- Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
- If You’re Happy and You Know It
and learn three more:
- Incy Wincy Spider
- Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
- When Santa Got Stuck Up the Chimney

Home Learning
Some great ideas to have fun learning with your child at home.
Here are some videos which give advice on how to keep your child safe online. As more children have access to tablets, phones and laptops it is important that we all know how to keep them safe online.
