Thank you to all those mummies who came to celebrate with us at our mother’s day breakfast. The event was a huge success and it was lovely to see new friendships form whilst seeing parents catch up with each other.
We shall be holding another breakfast event for the daddies in June, so, gentlemen, please don’t feel as though you have been left out.
Thank you to Steven Lee for coming to the parent forum on Thursday, however due to lack of numbers (he was the only parent) we had to cancel the forum. We shall try again next month, however if parents have any suggestions for making the forums more of a success (eg) different times or venue, please could you feed them back to Michelle. (We can provide bribes to ensure a good attendance!!) You’re input is essential and valued to ensure that we deliver the best possible care for your child and the best possible service to yourselves.
Next Friday (March 15th) we shall be celebrating RED NOSE DAY. Please see below the events each of the rooms shall be holding for the fundraising event.
Snails
The babies shall be looking at soft books depicting Easter spring animals and the staff shall encourage the babies to mimic the noises the animals make. Warm water play shall have play ducks and fish in it to support the ‘Spring’ theme, whilst outside the babies shall explore different smells and sounds.
Days off Jenni – Thursday
Caterpillars
To celebrate the theme of ‘Spring’ and Red Nose Day the Caterpillars shall be playing with the small world spring animals in cornflour. They shall also paint red noses with paint brushes and enjoy gluing and sticking with red tissue and shiny paper.
On Friday the Caterpillars are asking parents dress their children in something red, whilst making a donation for Red Nose Day.

Ladybirds
The ladybirds shall continue decorating their flowerpots and once finished shall plant spring seed. They shall use cotton wool to decorate pictures of spring lambs and talk about how the textures they can feel.
To celebrate Red Nose Day the Ladybirds shall be holding a teddy bears picnic and suggesting that the children wear something red, whilst parents make a donation for Red Nose Day.

The Bumblebees shall be following a two week theme of ‘Holidays’. During this time they shall make flags depicting different nationalities and cut countries out of maps, discussing which ones are big/little.
Outside the children shall build a tent and make skyscrapers from cardboard boxes. Therefore the Bumblebees would like to ask parents to donate any cardboard boxes they may have for the theme.
