Christmas is coming

 

Hello  Everyone,

We had a great week. We have been making our calendars, decorations and stained glass windows. We have been reading some lovely christmas stories and have loved these. 

This week we will be continuing our Christmas craft activities. We will be making angels, finishing off our calendars, and making decoration / window displays.

We will play chase the reindeer outside during the week. We will have a sensory area with Christmas decorations for the children to explore, we hope this will stop them expiring your trees at home!

For snack this week we will make candy canes made from strawberries and bananas. I’m sure the children will love this.

Letters and Sounds

we will continue to  play ‘keeper of the keys’ this listening game, you have to hide the keys while one person is outside the room. One child then comes back to see if they know who may have the keys.

Please always remember you can  call or email  us anytime if you have a question or need anything.

My email is:   z.stockley@princeofwales.dorset.sch.uk 

It was lovely to see the   Magical Learning Books back. We have been sharing the books at group times. We will send these out again after christmas so you can share the fun you have had.

Notices

Please bring any WOW's for our WOW board you have. If you would like some WOW slips, these can be found on the outside notice board in a wallet.

On Monday we are going to be watching the performance of Elves and the shoemaker. Children are welcome to dress up as elves on Monday, although this of course is not compulsory!

Also on Monday we have our Christmas story telling session with hot chocolate and a biscuit around the Christmas tree and magical lights in the main school hall at 4.15-4.50pm. Children are welcome to come in pyjamas, dressing gowns, onesies and slippers along with bringing their favourite cuddly toy. The pre-school team will greet the children at the back doors of the main school hall doors and pick up will also be from here. 

On Wednesday and Thursday it would be great if the children could come in with a piece of Christmas headwear for our Christmas sing song recording. 

On Friday it is Save the Children Christmas Jumper day. Children can come to Pre-school in their Christmas jumper with a donation for Save the Children. 

Also on Friday it is the Christmas Virtual school Disco at 5.00pm. An email has sent been out with login details.
