Learning Themes in Nursery
Here you will find information about how we are teaching the children within the six pre- school curriculum areas. These themes are used to plan a wide variety of learning opportunities and experiences for the children. They are very flexible and are used as a 'starting point' to develop learning. Each class may very well end up doing entirely different activities as the 'Themes' progress and the different interests of each class are used to plan next steps in the children's learning.
If you would like to engage with our Home Learning ideas then you may like to choose activities that link in with what we are currently learning in school! Some of the activities are skills that children need to continually practice and develop. These can be done at anytime and be repeated throughout the year. Most importantly though, enjoy the time with your child and have fun together!
