Letter of the Week – Our chosen letter for our next session is ‘t’! Please can your child bring in an item which has a ‘t’!

Playhouse Activities This Week – Today we celebrated Red Nose Day, we’ve done lots of ‘red nose day activities! Thank you for your very kind donations! We’ve continued with our ‘Under the Sea’ theme and we’ve taken a look at crabs and octopus. We’ve also done some Mother’s Day activities! We had great fun with our visit from Tatty Bumpkin on Tuesday and popped down to the wildlife area today.

Playhouse Activities Next Sessions – Next week we will continue with our ‘Under the Sea’ theme and we’ll take a look at turtles. We will also have a visit from Tatty Bumpkin on Monday and on Friday we will take the children to the wildlife area. Leaver’s photographs are being held on Tuesday; if your child is going to school in September, please can you bring them in at 1.30pm for their photograph with their ‘Leaver’ friends.

Dates for your diary:
Tuesday 28th March – Leaver’s photograph
Saturday 1st April – Easter Fayre at John Clare School.
Wednesday 5th April – Easter Service at St Botolph’s Church at 2.00pm. Everyone is welcome and we look forward to seeing parents, grandparents and family friends at our Playhouse Easter Service.

Easter Egg Competition We are really looking forward to seeing all the fantastic Easter Eggs for our competition. Due to the cost of the eggs, if your child decides not to take part in the competition, please could you return the egg to the playhouse at your earliest convenience! Thank you.

Childcare Choices – The Government have launched a new website this week, Childcare Choices. This website provides parents with a single point of information for all of the government funded childcare offers, including the 30 hours free childcare and Tax Free Childcare. Please go to: www.childcarechoices.gov.uk

Have a lovely weekend & Happy Mother’s Day for Sunday!

Kind regards
The Playhouse Team
