Hello everyone,

Welcome to June's newsletter.

 

Last month we looked at the subject of "Mini Beasts." We have marveled at how a snail can uncurl its horns, how in shell has a beautiful spiral and how it leaves a shiny trail wherever it goes, we have looked at spiders and spider webs and we have held wiggly worms. The children have been so fascinated with these amazing creatures, that I am extending this topic. Hopefully, we will find some ladybirds and I have ordered some caterpillars so that we can observe the life cycle of a butterfly. 

The children have enjoyed being outside in the warmer weather and as well as discovering these amazing creatures, we have been counting flowers, observing the strawberries as they develop and grow watering the garden. Before half term, we sowed sunflower seeds at toddler group which have now germinated. So as we slide into summer, we will continue to care for our plants and observe how things grow.

​

As usual my planning can be found on our current topic page.

Now that we have got to June, it is important that all our little ones arrive each day with a sun hat and sun screen. As well as this, we need to be prepared for every eventuality, so please remember to bring your little one in a suitable coat for the season, we like to get out, even when it is raining.

​

And finally, a word about illness. I appreciate that nobody can take time off work every time their little one has a cold, so, if your little one has a mild cold -clear runny cold, a mild cough and can cope with the day without medication, then bring them in. However, if your child needs medication has thick green snot and a harsh cough, they need to be at home.

​Thankyou so much for your support.
