This term our topic is all about “Amazing Animals”. The Ladybird class have been reading the book ‘Walking through the jungle’ by Julie Lacome .

25TH JANUARY 2023 I wrote to parents last Tuesday about the vote for strike action that had been announced by the NEU and the possible impact of this vote on our school (see news story of 19th January below). 

With the arrival of more new children last week, Thornton Heath Nursery was bustling with little adventurers. 

Welcome back to our returning children who were with us before the Christmas holiday and a very warm welcome to our new friends in Ladybird class.

Happy New Year! On Wednesday the children of Thornton Heath Nursery School welcomed each other and went straight to work together; hammering, building and exploring our wonderful grounds and resources.

What a wonderful day we have had today. The children and their families have enjoyed a winter sing-a-long in the beautiful St Alban’s Church. 

With our special Christmas singalong at Saint Alban’s Church fast approaching we have been singing our favourite Christmas songs together in school and teaching them to our parents and carers at home; some children even delighted their parents by singing as the final touches were put to their family Christmas tree… As the cold weather has truly arrived it was business as usual at Thornton Heath nursery…with the right clothing and a little extra care on the icy surfaces we were exploring and getting busy inside and out.

Ladybird class have continued with lots more festive activities. They have been decorating Christmas stockings and making wreaths.

We had a very exciting time at the nursery yesterday with the children and staff wearing their Christmas jumpers in order to raise money for Save The Children.
