Thanks go to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for providing super Christmas activities for children and their families to enjoy together at the end of term. We hope that they have added to the festive feel of your homes over the holidays and that those who took part had fun together.
Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, has been doing some PEEP (Parents Early Education Partnership) activities with our families from the Sunshine Room and their most recent session involved making feely bags using lots of glitter and sparkles. Adults and children alike found this a great session so thank you Eileen for arranging another fun activity.
We would like to remind you that Family Learning Christmas activities will take place this week on Tuesday 12th December and Thursday 14th December. Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, has been planning some fun activities for you to enjoy with your children so we hope that lots of families can join in. Younger children are welcome too.
Parents/carers from the Sunshine Room who joined in the PEEP sessions with Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, seemed to have fun making various types of play dough last week and the children certainly took part with enthusiasm.
Please remember that Eileen will not be available for the PEEP session tomorrow, 28th November, but she should be back with you next week. I wonder what fun activity she will have in store for you all then? Thank you Eileen for organising this great session.
We would like to remind you that the PEEP sessions for children and families in the Sunshine Room start tomorrow, Tuesday 14th November, with Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator. Eileen will join you for a fun activity from nine until ten and we hope that those participating enjoy this opportunity.
Have you got a question about Nursery, want to know about the children’s special books or perhaps want to meet other parents/carers? You are welcome to pop in for a cuppa and a chat on Tuesday 5th September with Eileen Johnstone (Family Learning Co-ordinator)and Mrs. Carruthers (Nursery teacher). We will be in the Family Learning room opposite the school hall between 11.20 and 1.00 and look forward to seeing some of you there.
Last week saw the final PEEP session with Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, and the theme was using props to bring familiar stories to life. The story was “The Hungry Caterpillar” and, after reading the story and feeding the special caterpillar bag with the food the caterpillar ate during his/her week of eating, our families used food to show the lifecycle of a butterfly.
Eileen said, “This was our last PEEP session and I would like to thank all of the parents, grannies and children who have joined in over the six weeks”.
I’m sure that everyone who took part has enjoyed these sessions and we would like to thank Eileen for her hard work over the past weeks to make these fun activities for all those who took part.
Last week’s PEEP session with Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, was based on “All About Me”. Some of the children said that it was tickly when the grown-ups were drawing round them. It certainly looks like lots of fun.
Here are some of the children and their families at last week’s PEEP session which was all about numbers. As part of the session they played a numbers action game. There was lots of winking, blinking, clapping and hopping. Eileen told me that turning around six times made Alyssa dizzy!! It certainly sounds like a lot of fun.
Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, has left a message about the play dough testing at her PEEP sessions today:
“Our play dough testing is over. The favourite was the play dough made with hair conditioner. It was the squishiest and had a lovely smell, it also made our hands nice and soft. Least favourite was the play dough made with yoghurt.”
Thank you all you play dough testers who took part. I liked the smell of the hair conditioner play dough too. I wonder if you will make any at home?
