Nursery
Hello Nursery, I hope you are all staying safe and well. Here are some things for you to do at home while you are off. Your parents can take pictures and send them to Nursery@sumfield.bham.sch.uk and I can look at them from home. If not, you can show them to me when we get back to school.
I’ve also added some websites you can look at but try to limit the time you spend on your tablets and computers. The sun is shining, play in your garden or with your parents and siblings.
Make a junk model; here are some examples.
During the lockdown your child may have been online more than usual. Online safety is extremely important, ensure that you are checking what your child is accessing on websites such as youtube, they are a click away from accessing inappropriate material. I have attached some website to explain and support parents with online safety.

Friday 7th June is World Environment Day; you can help to support this by creating a bug hotel, here are a few simple examples. You could then have a bug hunt.
VE Day Friday 8th May 2020
This Friday is the 75th anniversary of VE day.
Here is a famous painting of VE celebrations by LS Lowry.
Please could ypur children draw stick people celebrating in the style of Lowry. We could do with lots to make a collage so if siblings want to join in that would be great.
Please send photographs of your creations to Nursery@sumfield.bham.sch.uk
If I get enough stick people I would like to put them together and make a collage. I will get my daughter to join in too.
Take care, stay safe
