Hello everyone.....

 


Year 1


Hello Everyone, 


We hope you have all had a lovely half term break. The weather has been quite nice so hopefully you have been able to get out exploring. We would love to see some pictures so please send some in on the email below.

We are very much looking forward to the warmer weather which will mean your child will need to wear suncream. Please ensure you apply this before you drop your child off in the mornings. By the door there will be a list so you can tick off your child's name to say you have applied this for the morning. There will also be a bottle of suncream that you are welcome to use. Staff will then re apply after lunch for the afternoon session. We really appreciate your support with this. 


This week we will be exploring under the sea as we think the children will enjoy this theme. We have some fun activities planned. 


Healthy Movers

This week we will explore the musical instruments. We will be playing follow the leader with the children taking it in turns to be the leader. 

Please keep the ‘Wow’s’ coming in. The children are learning many new skills that need to be celebrated!

 

Notices:-

I would like to introduce Lola Green who has been appointed as a member of staff at The Prince of Wales Preschool. Lola will be working with the children on a Tuesday morning this term. Lola also works at The Dorchester YMCA Gym. 



If you can continue to help your child to put on their own shoes this is a really useful skill to have. Also putting on their own coats. This really helps them to learn this valuable skill. 


Please remember the classroom door opens at 8.55


It is Stay and Play on Saturday 18th April from 10.00-11.30am. Look forward to seeing you there. 


On Thursday it is Story time at 3.10pm. Everyone welcome.


If you have any further questions you can email Zoe on the following email. z.stockley@princeofwales.dorset.sch.uk


We are a NUT FREE SCHOOL, so please can we remind our families that the children have no products containing nuts in their lunchbox.

Hello Everyone, 


We have had a lovely week of learning together. The children have enjoyed exploring all the different colours of spring. We have completed some flower crafting pictures which look lovely on the wall display.  We did some colour matching, exploring the instruments and doing some great challenges together. We also did some large scale drawing on the floor which was great fun.

The children really loved world book day and enjoyed sharing their favourite stories at group time with their friends.

The children have enjoyed group times and have been doing some great listening.

Hello Everyone, 


We have had a great first week back together. The children have enjoyed planting some Sunflowers.  We did some self portraits while looking at our pictures. We also did some invisible pictures using wax and water paint.

This week we will continue with our Spring theme, celebrating world book day on Thursday. Please feel free to bring in your child’s favourite story.
