Summer Term

We are settling back into Nursery and building relationships with our friends. This term we will be getting ready to move to Nursery 3's so will be doing lots of transition sessions to help create a smooth transition for the children.

 
We understand that starting Nursery can be an upsetting time for parents and children alike, but we are here to support you.

We will work as a partnership together to make sure your child has their best start at Belle Vue!

In a morning when dropping your child off, try and make it as swift as possible and don't linger so your child can settle in and begin their day at Nursery.

How can I support my child at home?

• Read to your child – sign them up to the library and join events there over the year. (A longitudinal study commissioned by the Department for Education found that children who owned more books and were taken to the library more frequently at age two achieved higher scores in language and communication when entering primary school, Roulstone et al 2010).
• Talk to your child – introduce new words (Vocabulary ability at the age of five is strongly associated with comprehension skills at age 11, Finnegan et al 2015; Axford and Albers 2018)
