The last half term has been full of fun and as always parents have been so supportive with all of our different activities, especially our book week with parents and grandparents coming to read stories. Our ‘Mark-Making’ session was well attended, we visited Paget Farm and Orchard with parents and we had lots of fun at the Pancake Races and Chocolate Bingo!

We have lots of activities and events planned over the next couple of months; plenty for families to get involved with…

Spring 2014 News

 

Hello!

We started the New Year with 13 new children, they have all settled in well and it’s been lovely meeting them and their families.

Over the last few weeks we have been looking at “people who help us” and in our role play area has become a doctor’s surgery with a baby clinic. The children have enjoyed lots of visits from parents sharing their jobs including a nurse, postman, fireman, policeman and a lollipop lady. We have also been visiting the school hall to dance and move to music, creating our own musical instruments and mark making to music.

This year Pre-School will once again be hosting the annual Pancake Race on the Croft, followed by fresh pancakes, tea and coffee at the Rolleston club. Races for Pre-School Toddlers, Infants, Juniors, Adults and mixed groups. Teams of 4 people priced at £2 per team.
