Introduction

Welcome to the start of your child’s Kings Meadow Learning Journey.  We understand that as parents, this may be your first experience of nursery life and we are here to ensure that you are fully aware of what learning is all about in our Nursery.

We hope you find it helpful.  If you do have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

 

What will you need?

‘Tool Kit’ For Nursery

 

Your child will need to bring a bag (your child’s tool kit) to include everything he/she will need to have a happy day in Nursery. 

These essentials include

  • A plastic water bottle/beaker, to be returned and filled with water/milk daily 
  • A change of spare clothes – including socks, underwear.
  • Warm jumper if weather is cold.
  • Sunglasses/sun hat in summer weather
  • Hat, scarf and gloves for winter weather
  • Nappies/pull-ups, wipes, nappy sacks if needed.
  • Optional all in one waterproof play suit

 

WE PLAY OUTSIDE IN ALL WEATHERS!

Please ensure that your child comes to Nursery in weather appropriate clothing to enable full access to all of our learning spaces. 

 

Nursery Uniform.

Your child WILL get MESSY!

And we love it as it is part of learning!

Your child may get paint, playdough, food, spaghetti, slime, felt-tip, mud, sand and much more on their clothing!  We try our best to keep ourselves clean, however, we encourage the children to explore and get involved in learning. 

We recommend that your child wears our school Nursery uniform that includes

  • T-Shirt;
  • Jumper;
  • leggings/jogging bottoms;
  • Shoes/trainers with Velcro straps.

 

It is important that your child is developing independence within a setting with lots of children.  Velcro fastening shoes are most appropriate and helpful with this. 

Top Tip!

REMEMBER TO LABEL EVERY ITEM OF CLOTHING!

 

 

Entering Nursery

You will be greeted at our Nursery door by our smiling Nursery team. 

We are always happy to help and discuss important information about your child at this time.  Please inform staff of any medical needs or emotional needs that may affect your child during the nursery session.  It really helps us to support your child the best we can for the rest of the day. 

Thank you for your support when leaving the Nursery gate promptly to prevent congestion. 

Nursery gates are locked at 9.00am after morning children have arrived and 12.25pm for afternoon children– please report to the office if you are late.

Nursery Dinners

The menu for our school dinners will be given to you on request. It can also be viewed on the school website.

Please discuss options with your child and highlight your options on the menu before returning this back to school.  We encourage the children to try all of the delicious healthy foods.   Our children have loved tasting new foods and even enjoy foods they thought they didn’t like!

Healthy Snacks

Children help to prepare our healthy snacks and we have a healthy two weekly menu.  We focus on chopping, slicing and spreading skills and children develop their social and communication skills as they become the chef for the day!

We ask for a contribution of £1 per week to help us to fund our healthy snacks, baking and celebrations.  Please return in the envelope provided at the beginning of term.

Home Time

Home time is 11.45 am for morning children and either 3.00pm (30 hours) or 3.15pm (afternoons sessions) and we try our best to be prompt.  Should you be unavoidably detained, your child will be taken to the entrance/office. Please let us know if a family member/friend will be picking up your child.  

‘Our Cracking Curriculum’

We have developed a very exciting curriculum for our Early Years Foundation Stage.

In the Early Years at Kings Meadow Primary School, we believe that every pupil is unique.  We ensure all children have the opportunity to develop and learn in a safe and nurturing environment where play and learning is combined.

 Through practical learning experiences, we strive to equip children with a love of learning and a natural curiosity.

We are committed to giving our pupils the best possible start to their school life, teaching them skills and knowledge that ensure their well- being now and success in the future.

Home Learning

Yes…homework in Nursery!

Of course, homework in Nursery is not essential – but fun home learning activities are!   

We will send our nursery rhymes of the week, activities linked to our stories, creative ideas for you to make and do!  They are not compulsory and we do not expect anything in return.  However, we know that our children love to share with you what they have been learning about in nursery.  We may also share activity ideas on our Instagram page or school website.

We may set creative ‘half-termly’ challenges that we hope you will enjoy taking part in!

 

Parental Involvement

 

We provide many opportunities for you to engage in your child’s learning.  There will be lots of ‘Stay and Play’ days linked to our themes and topics. 

You may like to volunteer to listen to children read or help our children to change library books.
