Nursery 2019/2020
Welcome to our class page, we will regularly update this page with photographs for you to see what the children have been enjoying in school.
We will also post any important dates and information here.
All children have settled extremely well into Nursery and have enjoyed exploring our multi-cultural topic of Australia.
We are now really looking forward to starting our new and exciting topic. Be sure to keep an eye on our class page for some photographs!
**Important from the PTA for the Aviva grant**
Can we ask all parents, family, friends - everyone! To vote for us please:
We've entered the Aviva Community Fund to ask for £10,000 for IT equipment for the school - a class set of Chromebooks and an ActivPanel interactive board.
Voting opens today (Tuesday 23rd) at 9am - if you could spare a few minutes to vote for Cwmlai Primary School IT Improvement on the link below it would be massively appreciated! And if your family, friends, neighbours and anyone you've ever known could too, that would be amazing!
Only the projects with the highest votes go through into the final round of considerations and the school could really do with some new equipment.
Voting closes on 20th November, so don't delay!!

This topic has a knowledge and understanding of the world focus and enables children to explore 'after dark' including finding out about the moon, stars, nocturnal animals and familiar routines at the end of the day. With the Winter months approaching and the days getting shorter it is perfect timing for us to explore this topic.
The children will:

Cefn Mably School Trip
The nursery trip to Cefn Mably is this Wednesday 8th July. We will be leaving school at 9.30am and will return approximately 2.30pm. Please come in to school with your child at 9am. For our trip your child MUST:-
Be in school uniform.
Have a sun hat.
Have suncream applied before we leave.
Have a packed lunch (for you as well).
Have a drink in a bottle – no cartons please as the children need to be able to have a drink whenever they need one.
Wear sensible shoes – we will be doing lots of walking and there is a big adventure playground.
If it is raining have a lightweight raincoat.
The weather will likely be hot so all of the above is very important. If there are any questions please see the class teacher. Thank you for your support.
Miss Horrigan and the Nursery Staff.
Nursery Summer Trip
This year the nursery Summer trip will be to Cefn Mably Farm Park on Wednesday 8th July 2015. Each child must have 1 adult to accompany them and the adult must be someone who is known to nursery staff. Unfortunately, due to health and safety requirements and numbers on the bus, the trip will be restricted to children in the nursery only (no siblings).
The cost of the trip for an adult and child will be £13. This covers the cost of the bus and entrance to the farm. A packed lunch will be required for both of you. The bus will depart from school 9.30am and will return by 2.30pm.
If you are unable to organise an adult to accompany your child on the trip please see me and we will organise a member of staff to chaperone them.
Thank you,
Miss Horrigan
Dinosaur Open Afternoon
Thank you to our parents and grandparents who supported the nursery's open afternoon today! It was a huge success and we hope you enjoyed looking at your children's work as much as they enjoyed creating it! A fantastic end to a super topic!!
Open Afternoon
Nursery open afternoon is on Friday 22nd May at 2pm. Parents, Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles are invited to join us in the school hall for a dinosaur themed afternoon. The children will sing some of their favourite dinosaur songs and then show you around their classroom where you can see their fantastic work!
Don't forget to help your child decorate a t shirt for the afternoon! T shirts to be brought in to school by Thursday 21st May.
Croeso I Dosbarth Enfys!
Our topic this term is Dinosaurs! The children are very excited to find out about their favourite dinosaur. They will be finding out about what dinosaurs ate, where they lived, how they moved. They will be learning new words such as herbivore, carnivore and extinct.
The children are anxiously waiting for their role play area to be completed- a dinosaur nest filled with books, information sheets, pictures, puppets and dinosaur models for them to explore. Photos to follow!
