Nursery

HIGHLIGHTS

Nursery

Despite their short time at St Dunstan’s the Nursery class have established themselves as curious, courageous, and compassionate members of our community. The first part of the year was spent forming positive relationships with each other, learning about what makes us all special. They celebrated their first term at school by putting on a fantastic Christmas performance. It was a wonderful way to start off the festive season.

The children’s love of all things transport led us to the topic ‘Things that Move’. The children explored the concept of force and motion through play and targeted experiments. If you visited the classroom during the Lent term you were often met with zooming balloons, rolling marbles or handmade rockets. The Trinity term gave us a chance to experience our very first trip, to Mudchute Farm. The children prepared for the trip by making predictions about what they would see, designing maps and drawing animals. The children were delighted to meet Farmer Tom who took us on a tour of the farm and told us lots of interesting facts. The children have made huge strides in their personal and academic understandings this year and are excited for the challenges of Reception next year!
