Staff
Our Nursery class is led by Miss Waters supported by our teaching assistants, Mrs Bomba Bennett and Miss Tomes.
PE
Nursery have PE on Monday. Children wear their complimentary Roby Park PE kit to school – white logo tshirt, navy joggers and jacket. In the warmer months, children may want to wear their burgundy shorts.
Reading Books
Children are allocated multiple books weekly on Rising Stars Reading Planet as well as a physical book which is changed weekly, linked to their stage of Reading. Physical books are changed every Monday. We expect children to read for 10 minutes every night and then to complete the end of book comprehension quiz online when they come to the end of their book. You can access Reading Planet here.
Reading is Fun
We will soon be inviting parents in for ‘Reading is Fun’. Parents can come in at 11.30am every Wednesday and choose a book to take home and read with your child.
Children should share their nursery rhyme of the week with their parents every day. A copy of this can be found in your child’s book bag.

Thousands of colourful umbrellas are strung together over public spaces, in schools, and in company buildings around the nation. Each display is designed to represent the one in five of us who have a neurodevelopmental condition, such as ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia or Tourette’s syndrome.
