This term, we are continuing to enjoy our featured book, Whatever Next by Jill Murphy, while exploring space through a range of activities. We will build rockets and learn about the planets and the world around us. In our role-play area, children can create a space station and dress as astronauts, just like Baby Bear in the story. We will also make space biscuits for snack time and sing ‘Zoom, Zoom, Zoom, We’re Going to the Moon’, helping children practise counting backwards.
Our pre-school lending library is now up and running, offering a variety of books to choose from and take home to share with their siblings and parents. We are also encouraging our families to join their local libraries as this is a great place to take your children on a wet and windy day. Books can support children’s creative development and imaginative thinking, as well as spending that quality bonding time with your child.
This term, the pre-school is organising a “bags to school” collection for unwanted clothes to be reused and recycled. The collection will take place at 9:00am on Friday 2nd October. Anyone wishing to recycle unwanted clothes, bags, shoes, or towels is asked to place items in a bag and bring them in any day week commencing Monday 28th September between 9:00am and 3:00pm. Please ring the doorbell at the back of the village hall upon arrival. All monies raised will go towards buying craft material for the children.
If you would like your child to be part of this amazing pre-school family please contact:
