Dear parents / carers,
I hope you have all had a good week. This week Toddlers have enjoyed mark making activities using an apple cut in half to make poppy prints.
The children have also been gaining some knowledge and understanding of the world. We are growing our own Cress , the children have put in their cotton wool, sprinkled their seeds independently and water them each day. Now it’s time to watch them grow. Once grown the children can take them home and eat it , maybe in a salad or sandwich. It would be great if parents could send us pictures of what they did with their Cress.
This weeks Am Star ⭐️ of the week goes to Taif for being more confident and playing with others. PM Star 🌟 of the week goes to Arya for gaining confidence to settle into Nursery. Well done 👏.

This week our star of the week is Omar (am session) for being more confident in speaking and Olivia (pm session) for beginning to share attention with an adult. Well done to you both, keep up the good work.
We are aware that some parents have applied to start school nursery in January 2024. Please can you let us know ASAP if your child is allocated a place so we know what availability we have for January. Please kindly note that the nursery operates a 1 month notice period as we have been in the position where we have turned children down for a placement and then a child has started school, and we have been left with an empty place. Whilst this doesn’t stop children from taking up school places, funding won’t be transferred until after the notice period.
We hope you all have a lovely weekend
