Welcome Back to Pre-School 🌟
Hello everyone,
We hope you all had a lovely Christmas and enjoyed lots of special time together. We are very much looking forward to hearing all about it during our group times this week! If you would like, please feel free to email or bring in some photos of your Christmas holidays to share with the children.
A big thank you from all the pre-school staff for the very kind and thoughtful Christmas gifts – we are so grateful to our amazing families.
This Week at Pre-School 🎨📖
This week will be all about settling back into pre-school after the Christmas holidays. We will be:
Recalling our Christmas news during group times
Mark making pictures inspired by our holiday experiences
Beginning to learn the Read Write Inc. picture cards
There will be an information session coming up soon with more details about Read Write Inc., so please keep an eye out for further information.
Home Learning 🏡
Here are a few simple activities you can enjoy at home together:
Can you bring in some photos of your Christmas holiday adventures?
Can you help with a small job at home, such as tidying up or pairing socks?
Can you play a game that involves counting?
