12th April 2016
Dear Parents
/ Carers,
I hope you
enjoyed your Easter break. I certainly did!
We look
forward to the start of our final term and hope that the sunshine and warmer
weather continues so we can learn and play outside as much as possible. I would
like to continue the weekly walks to Newbold College Grounds to observe changes,
insects and growth that the warmer climate will bring.
We will have
some little visitors arriving this week: caterpillars which will hatch into butterflies.
When the time is right, we will release them into their natural habitat, in
Sylvia’s Garden. We look forward to learning more about growth and change.
EY Worship
We are going to look at 3 different stories over
the next term
1. God saves Moses
2. God saves David
3. God saves Daniel
We discover and celebrate how God saved a baby
Moses in a miraculous way. God needed a strong leader to show the world what he
was like and Moses was the ideal man.
PE
We will also
be doing as much PE outside as we can. Our plan for this term is to focus on
team-work, along with some activities to prepare the children for our Sports
Day later in the term. During the second half of this term, as well as our
sports day, we will be celebrating international day and have a school trip to
look forward to. More details to follow….
Phonics
We will
continue to have our daily ability phonic groups We will do our best to help
prepare your child’s holistic development for their move to F2/reception.
IMPORTANT DATE: THIS Thursday (14th April) is a phonics workshop
at 12.05 – 12.25pm and at 3.10-3.30pm in F2 classroom. It’s an opportunity to
go through phonic sounds, understand more about what group your child is in and
what we will be covering in an interactive way and a chance to ask me any
questions. Please try to come along if you can, to one of them. It will start
prompt.
Stay and
Play
We look
forward to welcoming as many parents as possible to our ‘stay-and-play’ session
on Friday 17th June at 11.30am – 12.30pm. This will give you an
insight as to what your child enjoys doing at school and an opportunity to ask
us any questions you may have. A reminder and more details will follow nearer
the time.
There will
be some new children starting over the next few weeks so we look forward to
welcoming them.
As always,
we welcome your feedback and enjoy working in partnership with you. Thank you
for your continued support. Please remember that we have an open door policy so
you are always welcome to chat to us.
God Bless
Best Regards
Mrs Jennings
and the F1 team.
