Meet the Team 

2025-2026

Welcome to Old Basford Nursery! 

You have found our Nursery page! Each week, our page will be updated with photo's from our daily fun and activities that have occurred throughout that week. 

Nursery Rhyme Booklets

At the beginning of each half term, your child will be given a nursery rhyme booklet with all the rhymes we will be learning over those coming weeks. In the booklet is a copy of each weeks lyrics along with a QR code, if you scan the QR code, this will take you to the youtube video that supports each rhyme. Please practise the rhymes with your child at home (even if they already know it) as it will increase their confidence to sing at Nursery and help to develop their speaking and listening skills. 

This half term...

This half term we will focus on settling our children into nursery and embedding some of the nursery routines. The children are all doing so well with finding their own peg labels and attempting to hang up their coats and bags - a huge well done! 

We have already implemented 'Dough disco' into our mornings to develop our fine motor skills and the children are really enjoying this! 

Bookbags...

On Monday, your child will be coming home with a bookbag, picture book and reading diary. Children will be changing their own books every Monday and Thursday - please ensure that your child's bookbag is in school on these days.

We are here to work with you and your child to support them in their learning. Please come and speak to a member of staff if you have any questions or concerns - our door is always open!

Thank you for your ongoing support,

The Nursery Team x
