Hello everyone....

 

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

We have had a really good  week and the children have had great fun learning more about the things that happen in Autumn. The children have made some great leaf prints and some of the children went to collect their own leaves they wanted to paint. We have talked about some of the changes that take place during Autumn and the children have come up with some great suggestions. We have done some number games and counting and played in soft play and the sensory room. The children are enjoying the outside play area and are having time to explore all the areas. During the week we visited the book fayre and read some stories together.The children really liked our Healthy Movers activity and loved the added props of the scarfs and practised lots of new skills. 

 The children are doing so well and are settling in amazingly to the new routines and surroundings. 

This week we will be continuing to learn about Autumn and have many activities planned.  If you have any pictures of walks or any items you find out and about then please bring them in for us to share at group times. 

Healthy Movers

We will be birds in the tree which is a very fun game. I am sure the children will tell you all about it.! 

The skills we will be working on are balancing, landing, balancing, pivoting, twisting, lunging, bending, stretching and turning. 

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

On Tuesday afternoon at 3.10pm we invite you to come to story time. Please come to the door which you drop off and collect from. 

Please try to leave all home 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. 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.

POWSA EVENTS:-

On Wednesday evening at 7.30pm in the main school staff room POWSA meeting. Everyone welcome. Look forward to seeing you there.

Looking forward to a great week together

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

We have had a really fun week and the children have had great fun learning more about the story of 'Were Going on a Bear Hunt’ The children loved exploring the grounds and going on a hunt to find the bear. We did some role play throughout the week and had time to retell the story in our tuff tray with props. The children tested out their skills cooking Bear biscuits and loved listening to some Bear songs. 

The children really liked our Healthy Movers activity and loved the added props of the scarfs and practised lots of new skills. 

We continued our name games during group times to remind us who everyone is.  We have been doing some posting with shapes to see how many different shapes we knew this also helped to progress our turn taking skills.  The children are doing so well and are settling in amazingly to the new routines and surroundings. 

This week we will be learning about Autumn and have many activities planned.  If you have any pictures of walks or any items you find out and about then please bring them in for us to share at group times. 

Healthy Movers

We will continue to explore  in the deep blue sea! 

The skills we will be working to learn are standing, lying, sitting, stopping, landing, balancing, pivoting, twisting, lunging, bending, stretching and turning. We are going to pretend we are on a seaside visit and have to be sea creatures. 

If you are able to start to help your child to put on their own shoes this is a really useful skill to have. Please help to describe all of the shoes when you are helping such as laces, velcro strap, and tongue. This really helps them to learn this valuable skill. 

Please remember the classroom door opens at 8.55.

On Friday afternoon at 3.10pm we invite you to come to story time. Please come to the door which you drop off and collect from. 

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

Hello everyone....

 

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

We have had a lovely week getting to know where everything is in our classroom and learning about each other.

We have tried to remember everyone's names and played some little games during group times to remind us. We have been doing some work on colours and numbers and have loved playing together with the tappy sticks during songtimes. The children loved having a play in the soft play room when it was raining during the week. They have a particular love for exploring creative materials and role play which is lovely to see. We have played some small group games and explored all of the areas of preschool.

You may still find your child is  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 but we do not encourage sleeping. You may also find the runny noses are starting to creep in, this is also normal and if your child is feeling well they can attend as normal. 

This week we will be exploring the story of ‘Going on a Bear Hunt’ . We have many fun things planned throughout the week which I am sure the children are going to love!

We welcome you to come and join us for a story on Thursday afternoon at 3.10pm. Please come to the classroom door where you pick up from. Look forward to seeing you there.

Please can you return all of your paperwork in your start up information packs so we can keep all of our records up to date. We will be sharing some photos in future with this blog so we need to ensure we have permission for this. 

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

Hello Everyone, 

We would like to welcome you to Preschool year 1. We look forward to welcoming your children over the coming weeks. This week we will be talking about ‘All about Me’ and have some fun activities planned. 

If you could complete your childs All about me information pack that would be great as it gives us some information to start conversations. 

If you could bring a spare change of clothes for your child this is always helpful. We have brought some drinking bottles so there is no need to bring one backwards and forwards to preschool. Your child will be able to identify theirs by their pictures tag. 

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 but we do not encourage sleeping.

Healthy Movers

This week we will be exploring with the scarves to music.
