Nightingale Park Trips

Sign-up sheets are up outside the classrooms for parent/carer helpers to volunteer to come on the Nightingale Park trips. We are hoping that as we have given lots of notice many of you will be able to come along for this fun educational event. The trips will all take place in the mornings, apart from one of the East Room trips, which is now on Tuesday 25^th June, in the afternoon. We can only go ahead with these trips if we have enough parent and carer support for each morning session, (each parent helper will be given children to look after, so I am afraid you cannot bring younger siblings). Please put the dates above in your diaries and let class staff know if you are able to help.

We were very lucky with our ‘Really Wheelie Trail’ today as did not rain!   Children had a fun time using various forms of transport to complete three laps of our Nursery garden, cheered on by classmates, staff and volunteer parents.  A big thank you to Isa, our parent governor, and all the volunteers for coming and helping to make it such a success. Each child will be going home with a certificate of completion…so many congratulations to them all.  If any parents would like to sponsor their child’s achievement, then please make a donation to ‘School Fund’. We will put donations towards getting a wheeled vehicle for the children to enjoy.

Please enjoy looking at the photos under the learning section.

Our next activities coming up are the Nightingale park trips for all the classes, so I am hoping that the sun maybe starting to shine by then.

Next week I will be letting you know what you need to bring for your child on these trips.

We are going to have a number of reception class teachers visiting the Centre next week. In the coming weeks we will start to talk about some of the changes children may experience as they move to their next schools.

We are looking for some additional lunch supervisors for September, so if you are interested in working two or three days per week between 11.30-1.00pm then please let me know. The lunch team are a very kind, friendly and welcoming group of people, and please be reassured that full training will be provided.

All the photos this week are from our ‘Really Wheelie Trail’ this morning. This activity gave the children a chance to have fun together and also to develop their physical skills. I hope you enjoy looking at them.
