*Our Christian Value for the term*

Our Christian value for this term is 'Friendship'.

Friendship is such an important value in our society, with children often spending more time with their friends than with family.

Jesus tells stories of the heavenly banquet to which all are invited. The barriers between people are broken down in a loving community around God, and Jesus had stern words to say to those who refused to recognise that all are included in this community of friendship.

True friendship enables each person to grow and ensures that the unique individuality of each person is recognised. All this echoes the value placed by God on the preciousness of each person.

‘A friend loves at all times.’ (Proverbs 17:17)

*Our Learning for this term*

Autumn Term 1

This term our topic is based all around the story

'The Smartest Giant in Town'.

Term 1 is all about settling the children in and getting them used to the new adults and the new environment. We focus on teaching the children the rules and expectations of Nursery and also developing their language skills. 

We'll be thinking about size, comparing the giant to the different animals and using lots of words such as 'huge' and 'tiny' to describe them. 

We'll be building our own town like the one the giant lives in, with boxes and blocks. 

We will talk about harvest time and giving thanks for what we have.
