Week 5 Transition

Hello Everyone,

Information

This week we would like to look at our families. Families come in all shapes and sizes and can look very different from each other. 

Everybody has their very own family at home that is unique to them.

When you come to Abbotswell you join our School Family. Those children who are in our ELC  are already apart of our school community and know how everybody works together to make our Abbotswell Family a happy, caring, and safe place to be. 

School Aims

Challenge

This week we have two challenges for you.

  1. Complete the transition passport that has been sent to you.

2. Do you know the letter sounds in your name?

This week we would like you to find objects that have the same letter sounds as the ones in your name.

If you do not know all your letter sounds that is okay. Just find items for the ones you do know.

Example.

Name Sam – Straw, Apple, Monkey

Or Strawberry, Slipper, Sock

Question

I am looking forward to or excited about??

This can be anything you think will happen at Primary1 or in the school. If you’re grown up writes down what you say and can post it on your ILD or emails them to the nursery staff.

As always, we would love to see photos or videos of the challenge being completed.

Week beginning the 6th of June 22

The ELC children have had another exciting week. In amongst primary 1 visits for our pre-school children, we have had Mr Miller, den  building, trying out first aid, orbeez in the outdoor water tray, painting using marbles, a dinosaur world and role play using fruit and vegetables just to name a few things.  We look forward to the nice weather continuing so we can make the most of the garden areas.

Week 4 Transition

Hello Everyone,

Information

This week we have the photos of our really helpful Office Staff. Most of you will know Mrs Douglas in the office already. The Office staff help everybody in school. 

I would also like to tell you about our Dinner Ladies. They work in the school kitchens and cook lunch for all the boys and girls. They are really friendly and always have a smile. It makes them really happy when the children remember to say please and thank you!

Challenge

When you go to school most children have either a school dinner or a packed lunch to eat at lunch time. You also get to take a healthy snack for playtime!

This week’s challenge is for you to be able to open up a packet or a container. For example:

  • yoghurt pot; 
  • bag of fruit;  
  • small plastic container/tub (that you would find in a packed lunch box)

Can you also drink out of an ‘open’ cup one with no lid.

Question

I am a bit worried about?

This can be anything you are not sure about Primary 1. If you’re grown up writes any worries you have down and posts them on your ILD or emails them to nursery staff we will be able to answer your questions.

As always we would love to see photos or videos of the challenge being completed. 

(Here is a hint for completing it– have a packed lunch outside!)
