We would like to thank all parents and carers for their kind donations to the Poppy Appeal we sold lots of poppies, keyrings and wrist bands. The Royal British Legion will let us know how much we have raised in due course.
We celebrated 'The BIG Draw' at THNS, an event aimed at encouraging mark-making using lots of different methods and equipment. Children and their families also enjoyed taking part in a 'Write Dance' activity. Please have a look at our galleries page to see photos from this fun-filled event.
A big thank you to all the families who attended our fantastic International Evening this week. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed food from the many different cultures that make up THNS. Children and parents were encouraged to join in with African drumming courtesy of Mr Smith from Beulah Infants School. It was amazing to see so many of you dressed in traditional clothes from countries around the world. Please check out photos from this event on our 'galleries' page.
We would like to thank all the parents who attended our first Gardening Club session of this year - we had a great turn out! Together everyone worked really hard to clear away the old plants, weeds and canes from last year and prepare the soil for planting. We are hoping to sew some winter vegetable seeds soon.
We were very pleased to see such a good attendance for our first ever 'Parent Information Meeting' held by our Lead Teacher Melanie. She talked to the parents about how we work with your children to extend on their own interests and incorporate them into our planning. She also discussed some of the nursery's routines and the importance of encouraging your children to become as independent as possible. We had some lovely feedback from parents who attended:
"I enjoyed all the information that was given, it was very detailed and straight forward, allowing us as parents to understand more what our children get up to."
"I enjoyed learning how children's behaviour is managed as this is the bedrock of a child's development and learning."
"I most enjoyed staff attitudes and visible passion for children's growth and development."
Thank you to all parents who attended this very interesting meeting.
It was lovely to see so many parents reading poems, rhymes and stories to their children to celebrate National Poetry Day.
Today our lovely families took part in our MacMillan charity event. They enjoyed having a hot drink and slice of cake whilst making new friends. Altogether we raised over £110 for this really worthwhile cause!! Thanks to everyone who donated.
Thanks so much to all our families and children who helped to raise over £60 today by wearing denim to nursery in support of the charity Jeans for Genes.
We've had a great year at THNS and celebrated today with our end of year family picnic. Good luck to our children who are leaving us to start primary school this September. Please have a look at the photos on our 'galleries' page. Thank you to all of the staff, children and families who make THNS such a special and unique school. We'd like to wish everyone a happy and safe summer break and look forward to welcoming everyone back on 5th September.
