Hello everyone..

 

Year 1

Hello Everyone, 

The children have had a lovely week in  the classroom. environment. 

They have enjoyed the mark making area this week, particularly the painting and mark making activities, where they engaged with a range of different tools to make changes to materials and create together.

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 played some small group games and did a great job of learning different peoples names. We have been exploring the features of our own bodies.

The children have enjoyed exploring with the musical instruments and tappy sticks. The children's confidence is developing each day which is lovely to see. 

This week we will be learning all about different shapes and we have lots of fun activities planned. 

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.

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. 

Healthy Movers

This week we will be 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.

We are a nut free school, so please can we remind families that the children have no products containing nuts in their lunchbox. 

We are more than happy to cut up fruit at lunchtimes so it stays fresh. 

On  Tuesday 29 September at 3.10pm we have storytime. Everyone is welcome to come and join us.

Looking forward to seeing everyone this week and having lots of learning fun together
