June Newsletter
CURRICULUM ACTIVITIES: Our learning topic this month is ‘People who help us’, this provides an opportunity for our children to explore and learn about various individuals who play helpful roles in our communities. There will be lots of exciting activities such as role playing in a hospital- learning how to bandage arms, what does an X-ray of a hand look like on our light box etc. Throughout nursery, children will do age-appropriate activities, to develop an understanding of people of the world, using the seven areas of the EYFS curriculum. You can find planned curriculum activities outside your child’s care room.
Support at Home:- To support your child’s nursery education at home, perhaps there is family or friends that you can talk about their job roles? Look online at what the role of a fire fighter does- chalk some flames on the floor and use a squirty bottle to put the flames out – which is great for hand eye co-ordination! What does a dentist do to help teeth keep healthy? A good activity to do would be using cheap toothpaste to clean their dolls/figurines teeth.
CARPARK SAFETY:- Unfortunately, lately we have witness some parents/taxi’s that are speeding in/out of the nursery carpark, we cannot express enough how important it is to go slow and take great care when entering and leaving. All vehicles must be parked in an allocated bay. Thank you.
PARENTS EVENING:- We will be contacting parents shortly, in readiness to organise 1:1 meetings or phone conversations, with your child’s key worker, to have a dedicated conversation about your child’s early years development and their record of achievement file, to have a look at, go through and talk about their next steps. Working together, we can ensure all our littles ones are well prepared for their future education at big school. We will be giving out more information over the coming weeks, to arrange a mutually convenient appointment time.
CELEBRATIONS:- On the 15th June , is the King’s official birthday so we will celebrating a birthday fit for a king! We will also be getting creative for all our lovely dads or loving person in your child’s life, making cards with love for Father’s Day on Sunday 16th”. On Monday 17th onwards is Eid-Al-Adha is a big festival where children will be taking part in a fun celebration in nursery!
GOING TO FULL TIME SCHOOL:- Foundation stage staff have already started the process of the children’s transitions to BIG school, liaising with and inviting new teachers to come and meet your child here at nursery. We also provide schools with their record of attainment through the foundation stage curriculum, so they can carry on their progress working towards KS1. All our over three’s
pre-school children will automatically transfer to our Foundation class room in September where visits will start shortly to prepare them. For any children leaving us, we require four weeks’ notice in writing to be able to transfer the funding to school and close any accounts.
