Letter of the Week – Our chosen letter for our next session is ‘f’! Please can your child bring in an item which has an ‘f’!

Makaton – This is a language using signs and symbols; we are going to learn ‘please & thank you’:

Playhouse Activities This Week – This week we have been doing some bird watching to see what we can spot in the Playhouse garden. We have made cupcakes and bird feeders. We have also been learning some new nursery rhymes. Thank you for all of the ‘teeth cleaning selfies’; they’ve been great! We have been outside looking and investigating the amazing ice patterns. We’ve had a visit from Sally, who came in to ‘dance’, this was great fun and we’ve also had an amazing time role playing Jurassic world .. lots of dinosaurs.

Playhouse Activities Next Session – Next week we are going to carry on with baking cupcakes to ensure everyone has been baking! We will be sewing. We’ll also have a hairdressers for our role play. We’ll read the Gingerbread man and the Magic pot of Porridge.

Do you have an old Shopping till / old maps? – After half term in Preschool we are going to be doing ‘role play’ activities and we’ll be making a shop. If you have an old till you no longer use, we’d love to have it. We are also on the look-out for any old maps! Thank you.

POSH Raffle – We are pleased to announce the winner of our POSH raffle was Alistair Bradley with the bonus ball number 45.

80’s v 90’s Disco – Thank you for your kind donation of boxes, we now have plenty. Thank you.

Communications book – Please can you make sure your Communication book is put into the basket each morning unfortunately, we don’t have time to check all the children’s bags. Thank you.

Parent Workshops for Rising Fives – If your child is going up to Primary school in September, please look out for the Parent Workshops for School readiness and book your place … a list will be in the corridor very soon.

Have a lovely weekend!
