We would like to welcome all our parent/carers and children to the new Autumn term. All children have been allocated a key person who will be working specifically with them. If you do not know who your key person is please ask Sally or Lynne.
Please ensure that your child is warmly dressed as the
hall can be a bit draughty at times. If your child comes to Pre-school in boots
please change them into trainers and dress them appropriately for outdoor play.
Please please please label all coats and bags with child’s name to avoid tears
(from children and adults!!!)
In the event of snow we will do our best to remain open
but if in doubt please ring the above number.
The theme this term is Seasons. We are looking at all types of weather and how it affects us in different ways. We are looking at harvest, making scarecrows and tractors, playing with the farm. We have celebrated Eid with a feast of flat bread, cous cous and minted yoghourt. We will be exploring fire work night and Poppy day, along with Divali and Christmas. Our church vicar brings his guitar along to explain the Christmas story and sings children’s Christmas songs. Our term will end with a lovely Christmas party for the children!!
Please
continue to support us with your weekly contributions of fruit. The children
love it and it is a great time for them to chat to each other about what they
have been doing etc.
Our first
fundraising activity this term will be clothes collections the week commencing
Monday 3rd November. Why not have a clear out during half term and
make a bit of money for Pre-school at the same time!! Sacks will be given out
before the half term holiday.
Last year we
had lots of very successful fundraising events with great support from our
parent/carers. Details of how much we raised and what we bought will be given
at our AGM.
Our coffee
mornings will be held on Wednesday 26th and Thursday 27th
November from 9am to 10.30. All parent/carers are invited to stay for coffee
and homemade cakes. This is a great opportunity to watch your child at play and
even join in, talk to the staff and your keyworker, and meet the other parents.
We only ask for a small donation towards refreshments. All monies raised will
go towards the children’s Christmas party.
Our AGM will
be held on Tuesday 11th November 2015 at 9.15, lasting approximately
one hour. This will be held in our small hall. Please come and support us!!!
