The sunflowers have re-introduced HomeBooks- these will be going home with your child at the end of their nursery week . Please let us know what you've been doing over the weekend- a couple of lines and a photo or drawing by your child is all that's needed - we're not expecting a novel! The children love sharing their experiences outside the nursery with the other children and staff and these books give them all the opportunity to tell us all about home . Please feel free to decorate and personalise these books - anything that will make them individual and recognisable to your child .
Our handyman Fred has fitted a new superduper extra strong gate between the garden and the carpark - this gate gets a lot of traffic and hard use so we thought it was time for a new one ! Its been baffling some parents today as the catch is different - you have been warned :-) The ongoing maintenance continues - Decorator Dave has recently painted the children's bathroom and the entrance area in the schoolhouse and will be continuing when he can - he's a very busy man!
As the evenings (and mornings) are getting darker , the carpark and outdoor building lights are now on - please be careful in the dark , particularly if its frosty! Don't forget that the clocks go back this weekend so it will be darker earlier.....just in time for ghosts , goblins and ghouls to come out and celebrate Halloween . We shall be having Halloween activities on Monday , Tuesday and Wednesday next week - all children are welcome to come in costume and to bring homemade lanterns into nursery- we'd love to see your handiwork! Please leave the sweeties at home though .
A date for your diary .......Parents Evening will be on Wednesday 14th November 6pm to 7:30pm . This is an informal evening , where you will have the chance to talk to staff about your child's progress , see some of what they do when they're here , and meet other parents . Its a drop in evening - you're not expected to be here for an hour and a half! Just come along when you can - we'll all look forward to seeing you there . You'll even be offered a glass of wine too!
Thank you to those who have returned the children's christmas card orders - these have now been sent away and should be back in the next two weeks..........speaking of cards- those of you (and I know there are many ) who are super organised and already getting ready for the big event(YES in October!) PLEASE don't send christmas cards to all the children/staff at nursery- we are very keen on reducing waste and recycling , so please just send one card to the whole group - these will then be displayed so all the children can see them. Thankyou
