We’ve got off to a great start to the year! We have read in the classroom, the library and even outside in the playground.







Well done to those who have already read at home too. Please keep this up! 📚
Latest News from Holbeach Primary School
On Wednesday 26th May at 3:30pm, there will be an exciting opportunity to go and meet one of our Reception author/illustrator focuses- Dapo Adeola.
It’s free and you don’t need to book- just turn up and meet the creators of Rocket! If you have one, you can take your copy of one of their books to be signed or even buy their new book ‘Speak Up’.
The nursery children have been enjoying the story ‘Mr Wolf’s Pancakes.’
The children recognised lots of familiar characters in the story from our Fairy tales topic and learnt some new character’s such as Wee Willie Winkie and Chicken Licken.
We learnt a new rhyme.
We made shopping lists for the correct ingredients to make pancakes. Can you remember what we needed to make the batter?
Did you make pancakes at home? Send photos to nursery@holbeach.lewisham.sch.uk
To introduce our new topic, we tried 4 different types of eggs. It was cracking!
Can you remember the 4 types of eggs?
Which was your favourite? Which was most popular/least popular in 1L?
How would you describe the taste and texture of the different eggs?
We are looking forward to lots more ‘eggtastic’ work this term!
The nursery have been enjoying the Bear Hunt story and have been immersed in lots of new language.
Here is some of the learning in action.
Tomorrow we are going on a bear hunt around the school. I wonder how many bears we will find?
Listen to the story at home. Can your child join in with the repeated parts of the story?
This morning, we got to visit the new Catford Library. We had a lovely morning. We had two stories read to us, were able to browse all the books available and were even able to check some out some books to borrow (but it’s important to remember these books need to stay in school, sorry). We’re really looking forward to a return visit after half term.
