Seedlings Class 2024-25
Welcome to Seedlings Class!
Welcome to 'Seedlings Class' everybody!
In nursery, there are two teachers and we are so lucky to have lots of other ladies who help us throughout the week.
Ms Hedge teaches on Monday and Tuesday and Mrs Allen teaches Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Mrs Lambert will be working with us on a Thursday morning.
Mrs Mitchell, Miss Harrison, and Mrs Dodd support us all in our learning.
We have lots of fun-filled activities planned, and we will also take notice of the things that you like to do so that we can do more of them.
We will keep in touch through Class Dojo and you can upload your learning into your portfolio. We have also introduced a new online assessment tool called Tapestry which parents and carers can contribute to. Details will follow if you are not already registered.
We will update this page through the year to share our adventures. We are looking forward to our wonderful learning journey together this year!
Hello everyone,
My name is Ms Hedge and I teach in Nursery on a Monday and Tuesday. I am in school all week because I am also an Assistant Head Teacher and SENCO. That means I look after lots of children right across school.
I have worked at Kirkby Avenue for a very long time and have taught lots of boys and girls who are now grown-ups! That makes me feel very old!
I have two grown up boys of my own too, we love football and really enjoy going to matches.
I love stories too and look forward to sharing lots of your favourites with you.
We think very carefully about learning and how to make it fun for you so you will enjoy coming to school.
See you soon and we will all have fun learning together.
Hello everybody!
My name is Mrs Allen and I am the teacher in Nursery on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
I have worked at Kirkby Avenue for a very long time - my first ever class here will be starting sixth form or college this year!
At home, I have got a little dog called Ted and an almost 3 year old boy. He’s just a little bit younger than you and loves ‘Paw Patrol’. Who is your favourite pup? Mine is Marshall.
My favourite story is 'Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy'. Come and tell me about your favourite stories.
Mrs Mitchell Hi, I’m Mrs Mitchell. I have worked at Kirkby Avenue for many years now. In my spare time I enjoy seeing my Grandchildren and going on holiday. In school I love singing songs with the children. I hope you have your best singing voices ready.
| Miss Harrison My name is Miss Harrison. I have worked in Nursery for a few years now and I love it! At the weekend I enjoy going to the seaside. My favourite place to explore is Scarborough. I can’t wait to hear about all of your adventures when you come to school.

We have lots of ideas for new learning and our thinking for this term will be "I wonder how we look after our world?". We will be learning about our classroom, our friends, our rules and routines, our school pets, our homes and families, people who help us, Autumn and Autumn celebrations.
We always strive to follow the children's interest so our learning may well lead us on a different journey, giving our children ownership while ensuring they reach towards their goals.
Look out further down the page for our Parent Forecast which details our aims for this term and also our home learning menu for this half term.
We are looking forward to continuing our learning journey together.
Reading in Seedling Class
The early stages of reading with our children will be retelling stories they have heard. Children will often want stories they love to be read to them over and over again, this helps them to be able to retell the story without actually being able to read the words.
We want children to enjoy stories because this will support them in enjoying reading independently when they move to that stage of their reading journey.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
