22 Street Lane Nursery - October 2021 Newsletter

October Newsletter NEWS

Staff Training Day: Tuesday 2nd November: We would like to remind you again that we are holding our Staff Training Day on Tuesday 2nd November 2021, therefore, the nursery will be closed this day and reopen on Wednesday 3rd November at 7:30am. As a team, we will be trained in ‘Children’s Learning Through Movement’ by the Leeds City Council Learning Improvement Team. We will also be looking at important changes regarding safeguarding and the new EYFS curriculum and how we can continue to implement this at the nursery. We will end the day by hosting our annual staff awards to reward and recognise our staff for the hard work they put into the setting and children. Details will be given soon as to how you can vote for these awards.

‘Around The World In 30 Days - Nature’ (September): As a nursery, instead of exploring a 'Country of the Month' we are now visiting lots of countries throughout the month exploring a different theme, this will be called 'Around The World In 30 Days'. The focus for each month will be different and the aim is to explore a topic relating to different cultures around the world, with an emphasis on the many different nationalities we have within our 22 Street Lane family. For September, our focus has been on nature and the children have been learning all about the natural world. Thank you to those parents that posted some pictures of them exploring the world too, the children have enjoyed sharing these photos!

Rosh Hashanah Celebrations (6th-8th September): Rosh Hashanah week was another chance for the nursery to explore different festivals with the children. We enjoyed trying some delicious cooking from the kitchen as well as apple print painting and making cards to take home!
