Dear parents
We hope you are having a lovely weekend It was so lovely to see our children really enjoying their work on Chinese new year last week.They seemed to really enjoy eating their chinese food particularly the prawn crackers which were very popular.
This week our focus story will be Owl Babies by Martin Waddell.
The children will be listening and responding to the story .They will listening to birds in the wooded area and feed the birds in home made bird feeders.
During the Winter months please make sure your child attends Nursery with a waterproof jacket each day. Additional hats/scarfs etc may be needed if the weather is cold. We do believe in the children having some outdoor time each day but on particularly bad days we will keep them under the canape.
Please be aware children may finish Nursery slightly messy or slightly damp from playing outside. We believe that children learn a great deal from playing in different weather conditions and please be assured that your children will not be left in soaking wet clothing for the whole session. If you would like to send spare clothes in to keep at Nursery in case of accidents please hand them to one of the Nursery staff in a named bag.We now have the opportunity for our morning children to attend additional afternoon sessions if you have an appointment. These will cost 15 pounds for the extra lunchtime and afternoon session.
Bookings must be made by 12p.m on the previous Friday. Please talk to Nursery staff if you need some advice with this.
You all did so brilliantly with working with your child to learn to put their coat on that we have decided to put a weekly parent activity on this newsletter.
This week we want to praise children who use their manners well.We would like all the children to say hello or good morning/afternoon and please and thank you. Stickers will be given to children using their manners well. Well done to Olivia Hodo and Olivia Harrop who used their manners brilliantly all week. We will continue to listen out again this week.
We would also like the children to look out for birds on their way to and from Nursery and let us know if they see any.
If your child could borrow a book from our class lending library and then if you could send us a photo and a short comment about your child and how much they enjoyed sharing their book. We now have 6 of our children we would really like some more.
We will then print the pictures off and share them in the Nursery.
Please send the photos by email to
eyfs@mead.havering.sch.uk
The Newsletter will also be published on the EYFS blog. You can view this from the school website: http://www.mead.havering.sch.uk or by following the school facebook page.
Please email staff if you have any queries on eyfs@mead.havering.sch.uk or feel free to pop in and see us if you have any concerns.
