I had a lot of this when my daughter started nursery school last year.
She made the place sound like a boxing ring! However there were only 16 kids in her nursery with 3 quite strict teachers so I knew that it wasn't serious.
I think it is partly the fact that they suddenly start becoming very social with other kids that they're just lumped with, not necessarily friends. And its all part of getting to know each other. Also, for the first time, they have a separate social life that you're not part of and they relish coming home and telling you all the exciting things that happened and kids tend to be a bit dramatic with their language.
Their imaginations are wild too. She once came home and told me that so-in-so trapped her in a dark rabbit hole for hours where she hurt her finger very badly! They were in the classroom all morning so I still have no idea what she was talking about, although her best friend backed up her story!
I agree with the other posters, don't take it too seriously if its not upsetting him, tell him to tell the teachers straight away if he gets upset and then have a quiet word with them to keep an eye on him.
