We are so proud to announce that our Nursery School has won the South Tyneside Greenest Award. We are so happy as the children, parents and staff have worked so hard to ensure that our school is simply amazing. Thank you to everyone who has helped us along the way.
Just look at the fun we had as we spruced up the pots, looked for bugs, made new scarecrows and got rid of the weeds.
Our pots look blooming beautiful.
We planted seeds in tiny pots. When they are big enough we will plant them in the allotment.
Some children planted beans…hope we don’t get any beanstalks or giants in our nursery garden!
What a fantastic day!
We are ready for our grand entrance.
Poor Mary had no place to sleep so a kind Inn Keeper said they could stay in the stable.
The shepherds came to see the new born baby.
The Kings brought special presents for the baby. They travelled on a camel.
Everybody was very happy!
Look at the fantastic things we did during Sharing Week. Our families and child minders came into school to have fun, share their talents and show us just how amazing they are.
At Helen Gibson Nursery School we are expert builders. Just look at this amazing construction that these two children have built together. Wow!
“That says me!”
We love to show our friends what we have been up to.
We will be sending our Learning Journals home regularly for your child to share with you. Please feel welcome to add photos or any information about your child’s interests or achievements. We update journals regularly, so it is important that they are returned to Nursery promptly. At the end of your child’s time in Nursery, they will be yours to keep, but meanwhile they are a vital assessment tool for our staff so they are as precious to us as they are to you! We hope you enjoy sharing them as much as your child does.
The children are having a wonderful time learning about Autumn. Here are some of the lovely things we have done so far.

New 2 Year Old Lodge
As of September 2015 we will be offering the 2 year old offer in our brand new Lodge. If you are interested in a place please ring us to arrange an appointment to come and look around.
Early Year Pupil Premium
In order to support our children we have used the money which we have received to purchase new story sacks. These will be used to encourage and develop speech and language which is something we are focusing heavily on at school. The amount we received was £300.
The impact has been that the targeted children, and others have made more progress in all areas of communication and language.
Chicks
We have exciting news. 10 eggs were delivered to our nursery and 10 chicks have hatched.
Joe is giving this lovely chick a cuddle.
