Hi All,
This week the children have been exploring colours and textures of the sand. The children throughly enjoyed breaking the sand rocks using different materials. They have also recognised and named number moulds.
Just wanted to say a big thank you to all the parents I have enjoyed my time working, helping, supporting your child progress at Winterton House Nursery. Will miss you all ♥️
Hope you all have a lovely half term

Dear parents and carers
Toddlers have loved spending time in the garden exploring a range of different physical activities to help develop their gross motor skills and movements by using the slide, running around playing chasing games and riding on the cars and bikes.
They have also been out visiting a local park and walking around the local area looking at different fruits on the market stalls.
This week our morning session star of the week is David for settling into nursery. Our afternoon star of the week is Samin for playing nicely, being happy and regulating his emotions.
Well done to you both keep up the good work.
Thank you to all the parents/carers who have folded their prams it has made a huge difference in the buggy shed and everyone can now easily access their prams. :)
Today we say goodbye to Toslima in pre-school, who will be leaving Winterton House to start a new chapter in her career at another school. We would like to thank Toslima for all her work she has done and wish her well in her new job.
After the half term Jenny from toddler room will be managing both room and will be in the toddler room for the morning session and pre-school for the afternoon session.
Today we break up from nursery for half term and we will be back at nursery on Monday 5th June 23.
We hope you all have a lovely holiday and we will see you all when we are back.

​Dear parents and carers
Toddlers this week have been developing their gross motor skills and movements but exploring the garden and running around open space, learning to ride the bikes and drawing on the floor with chalk.
They enjoyed experimenting with the corn flour feeling the different textures from soft to hard.
This week our AM star of the week was Arham for coming in everyday enthusiastically and being imaginative with his friends. Our PM star of the week was Yakub for being confident and verbal during his play.
Well done to you both keep up the good work.
It’s really important that if you decide to leave your pram at nursery it must be folded to accommodate all of the prams fitting inside the buggy shelter. As I have noticed many prams coming out of the buggy shelter and onto the drive way and parents who prams are at the back can’t their pram as the other prams aren’t folded. As myself or staff can’t always be standing downstairs as it’s very busy in the rooms. If you are unable to fold your pram unfortunately you will have to take your pram home with you.
Next week is our last week before we break up for half term.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend

​Hi All,
This week the children have used one handed tools to pick up the sand using the spades. Some children were able to describe the textures of sand, shells etc. The children have been talking about past experience when they visited the seaside.
Reminder:
As the weather is getting warmer please can you ensure your child is dressed appropriate for the weather. Please can you also name their jackets and belongings. Also can I remind you to leave toys at home as this prevents them from getting lost and damaged.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

​Dear parents/ carers
Toddlers this week have been exploring with different textures by feeling different textures with their hands, using paintbrushes, pots and containers etc. They can also been using blocks and bricks to build with creating their very own structures and commenting saying what they had built.
The children were fantastic when having the photos taken earlier this week. The proof should arrive at the nursery by the end of half term where you will be able to order the photos online, if you wish to.
As soon as we have the proofs back they will be handed out to the child’s parents.
Our morning star of the week goes to Shita for settling well into nursery and our afternoon star of the week goes to Ubs for playing nicely with others.
Well done to you both keep up the good work.

This week the children had their photos taken. They will soon be available to view and order them online. Hopefully, they will be back before the end of the term.
The children thoroughly enjoyed our messy area. They have used one-handed tools to pick up the pasta and categories into coloured bowls.
**Can I remind parents if you have a buggy can you please fold them into the shelter. Also can you please leave toys at home as this prevents them from getting lost or damaged at nursery.
Parents can you also ensure you are providing nappies and wipes for your child.**
Thank you. Have a lovely weekend

​Hi All,
This week the children have been busy painting their hands to represent the Union Jack 🇬🇧
They have also enjoyed decorating their crowns using collage materials, as part of our activity.
Due to the weather condition today we were unable to do our garden party. The children still enjoyed the indoor party. 😁 Well done to all those that participated in making a crown. They all looked very creative.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend and enjoy the Royal celebrations 👑🇬🇧

​Dear Parents/Carers
This week toddlers have been super busy creating their crowns, and decorations and doing fun activities in preparation for the King’s coronation over the weekend.
Today we had a tea party and unfortunately due to the weather, we were unable to have it in the garden but still managed to have a lovely time inside.
It was wonderful seeing so many children dressed up for the occasion and the amazing crowns they made at home. Well done to everyone who took part they were all brilliant.
Also, Jenny, Jody, Georgia and Sultana took part in their very own crown competition and you can see their crowns in the picture.
Our morning star of the week is Mahdee for settling into nursery and our afternoon star of the week is Saladin for playing nicely with others.
Well done to you both
Next week we will be closed on Monday 8th May 23 for the bank holiday and will be back to nursery on Tuesday 9th May 23.
I hope everyone has a lovely weekend and enjoys the kings' coronation by watching it on the tv or going somewhere to enjoy the celebrations.

​The nursery photographer will be coming to take portrait photos of the children on Wednesday 10th may. There is no commitment to purchase and do let a member of staff know if you do not want your child's photo taken. You will be able to view the photographs and order them online and they will be back before the end of term.
