Hello everyone....

 

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

The children have had a really nice week in  the classroom. 

They have enjoyed identifying different shapes and had a shape hunt around the classroom area this week, particularly the puzzles  and construction activities, where they engaged with a range of different techniques to make changes to their ideas and create great structures together.

Through the week, we have again been joined in the year 2 class for snack time and outdoor activities in the garden play in the year 2 classroom. We really enjoyed playing ‘What’s in the bag’ . We have been exploring the small world play and the children have been  adding a narrative to their play.

The children have enjoyed exploring with the tappy sticks, and following instructions well.The children's confidence is developing each day which is lovely to see. 

This week we will be learning about farming/harvest  and we have lots of fun activities planned. 

We will continue to welcome new families to preschool over the coming weeks. 

If you could bring a spare change of clothes for your child this is always helpful. Please bring a drinking bottle that can be left at preschool for the whole year, clearly named. Please ensure they do not have a straw. These will be put through the dishwasher after every session.

You may find your child is very tired over the next few weeks while they are adjusting to all their new surroundings. This is normal. We do have a quiet down time after lunch.

This week we will be continuing exploring our balancing skills playing birds on the branches.

Please remember the classroom door opens at 8.55.

Please try to leave all toys/comfort objects in your child’s bag. We can then keep track of what has come out so they don’t get lost.

We will be having a parents information session coming up soon when all the children for this term have joined the class.

If you have any further questions you can email Zoe on the following email.

Hello Everyone, 

The children have continued to settle into the classroom environment and explore their surroundings. They have enjoyed playing with the small world figures, particularly the messy play activities, where they engaged with a range of different textured materials and creative opportunities.

Through the week, we have been joined in the year 2 class for snack time and outdoor activities in the garden play in the year 2 classroom. We listened to some music tracks and talked about if we liked them or not. We have been exploring the features of our own faces.

It has been lovely to see the children playing alongside each other and observing and responding to the play. Many have enjoyed playing together in the role play house, using their imagination and they have been practicing their ball skills.

We will continue to welcome new families to preschool over the coming weeks. This week we will be learning about  ‘Colours’’ and have some great activities planned. If you could continue to bring in  your child’s All about me information pack and return it we have a starting point for our conversations.

If you could bring a spare change of clothes for your child this is always helpful. Please bring a drinking bottle that can be left at preschool for the whole year, clearly named. Please ensure they do not have a straw. These will be put through the dishwasher after every session.

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

The children have had a wonderful start to the term and have settled into classroom life with enthusiasm. They have enjoyed exploring the different areas of the learning environment, particularly the messy play activities, where they engaged with a range of sensory materials and creative opportunities.

Through the week, the children joined the year 2 class for snack time and outdoor activities in the garden/wet play in the year 2 classroom. They have also taken part in group story sessions and singing time, both of which have been firm favourites. 

It has been lovely to see the children beginning to learn each other's names and forming new relationships. Many have enjoyed playing together in the role play house, using their imagination and developing important social skills.

We will continue to welcome new families to preschool over the coming weeks. This week we will be continuing talking ‘All about Me’ and have some great activities planned. If you could complete your child’s All about me information pack and return it we have a starting point for our conversations.

If you could bring a spare change of clothes for your child this is always helpful. Please bring a drinking bottle that can be left at preschool for the whole year, clearly named. Please ensure they do not have a straw. These will be put through the dishwasher after every session.

You may find your child is very tired over the next few weeks while they are adjusting to all their new surroundings. This is normal. We do have a quiet down time after lunch.
