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! 📚

Reception Parents Reading Workshop
A big thank you to all the parents that attended the recent workshop, where we discussed ways of helping reception age children develop as readers at home. It was lovely to see the excitement on the children’s faces as their parents joined them in class to have a special reading time together!
Mr Wolf’s Pancakes
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
Nursery – The Gingerbread Man
The nursery children have been enjoying the story of The Gingerbread Man.
1L Eggs, Let’s Get Cracking!
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!
Nursery – We’re going on a Bear Hunt
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?
Year 1 – Cooking and tasting porridge
After reading the story of ‘The magic Porridge Pot, we made and ate some porridge too!
Luckily, we remembered the magic words to make the pot STOP! Phew!
Where did the porridge go in the story? What did the porridge taste like?
6L – We ♥️ reading!
4A Love the library! 📚
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.
