World Book Day

This week we celebrated World Book Day by wearing pyjamas to school and enjoying a bedtime story with our friends and families.

At Children's House Nursery School all our children read and are keen to explore and enjoy books alone, with a friend or at story time with their class and teacher.  We encourage children to read by having books everywhere - fiction, non-fiction, picture books, books made by children, books made by staff and leaflets too!
We share books together and encourage children to enjoy books as part of their play. 

Please try to read every day with your child at home: a bedtime story is a beautiful way to unwind after bath time. The perfect time to snuggle up together.
Reading helps young children to develop language, vocabulary and understanding. This is key for learning in all other areas of the curriculum. 
Reading the same book time after time can be exhausting for adults but it really helps children internalise narratives and I love to watch the same film again and again as I know the ending and it's comforting and safe!

Remember you can borrow books from school and join the local library: click here for information!
