Home Farm Primary School

Please can we introduce you to the Nursery Team:

Tapestry

In Nursery and Reception, we use an online learning tool called tapestry to record all of the exciting things that we do throughout the year. Parents are welcome to contribute to their child's learning journey and will be given a unique login to follow the progress of their child throughout their early years.

Library Books

Each child will be able to take home a library book once a week. Library books will be changed:

Ladybird and Caterpillar Group - Tuesdays

Butterfly and Caterpillar Group - Fridays

Full time children can change their book on either Tuesdays or Fridays

My Sound Book

Please practise the letter sounds with your child at home and return each week so that the following week's letter sounds can be added to your child's book-

Ladybird Group- Return My Sound Books on Mondays

                              My Sound Books sent home on Wednesdays

Butterfly and Caterpillar Group- Return My Sound Books on Wednesdays
                                                          My Sound Books sent home on Fridays

Snack

The children are offered milk and fruit every day. On a wednesday the children will have something different for snack e.g. biscuit, jelly, toast, crackers, spaghetti, etc. We ask for a voluntary contribution of £2 every half term for part-time children and £4 every half term for full time children. The full amount will be loaded on to parent pay system at the begging of the academic year or is available to pay via the parent pay system at the start of each half term. This will also help towards baking activities with the children. Thank you for your support.

Newsletter

Nursery's weekly newsletter will be available to parents on SchoolPing. Parents are encouraged to complete the 'home challenges' each week with their child
