Joshua H’s family likes the photo of him making toast on the fire:
“Joshua loves experimenting with & making food & doing different activities. He’s concentrating so much in this photo, he would of been in his element.”
You are right. Joshua does look as if he is concentrating well. You can’t beat making your own snack outdoors – I’ve not seen the children so enthusiastic about toast for a while.
Don’t forget that the school book fair is on in the school library all week and parents can call in every day between 3.00 and 3.30. Nursery children will also go together for a look at the books on offer on Wednesday.
Quinn’s family has been enjoying her recent mentions on the blog. They are understandably proud of her recent well deserved certificate for super problem solving:
“Quinn was so excited to get this. Almost as excited as her mam and dad. Well done Quinn keep up the excellent work. Xx”
They are right Quinn – it was excellent work. They are also pleased that Quinn is able to share her ideas when we have group discussions. This time is was about who we love and why.
“Nice to read that Quinn takes part in these conversations. X”
It’s lovely to see, as the year progresses, how much more confident the children are to share their thoughts and ideas with others.
Georgia’s family likes the photo of her with her certificate:
“Aww my girl so proud”
She certainly looks pleased with her achievement. Well done!
Joshua’s family has been looking at all the photos from Toothtastic Tuesday when he tried out all the different activities.
“Joshua loved dressing up as a dentist and he loved inspecting teeth. He just got stuck straight in.😊 ”
“Joshua loved brushing the teeth that day. He concentrated so hard & done his very best. Well done Joshua! Lovely picture here of him & Bethany.☺”
“Joshua sat just like he would visiting the dentist. Mummy & Daddy are very proud of him.😊”
He does look very busy in these photos – great concentration Joshua! It was lovely that your Mummy was able to join in with you at the activities too.
Finlay’s family liked the photos of the children singing and dancing on their stage:
“Finlay loves to sing and really enjoyed performing with his friends at nursery.”
You certainly were putting on quite a performance boys and girls. It was lovely to see your confidence.
Owen’s family has been looking at our recent photos. They liked seeing him relaxing on the dentist’s chair on our Toothtastic Tuesday:
“Owen really enjoyed this, looks very chilled 🤓👍🏼💤😷”
The photo of Owen joining in with the other children on the stage was another favourite:
“Owen said this was “really nice and really good”. Such a performer!!”
We are glad that you are enjoying our photos. Hopefully everyone is getting a regular insight into what happens in Nursery.
As promised, here are photos of the afternoon children enjoying the Toothtastic Tuesday activities. They listened well and hopefully learned about how to look after their teeth from avoiding sugary foods and drinks to the best way to clean their teeth and what happens at the dentist.
Thank you to all those parents who joined us for these activities and for your valuable feedback. Thank you also to Eileen, Jacqueline and Nikki for their time and effort to provide the children with fun and learning. You should all have an information pack for home in your child’s tray. We hope that this answers some of the questions that your feedback highlighted.
Callum’s family liked the photos from our Toothtastic Tuesday activities:
“Callum fair enjoyed having the Dentist in the other day. He sayed the best part was being able to lie down on the comfy chair”
He certainly looks very relaxed in the chair. We are glad that you enjoyed the day Callum.
This week the children enjoyed some fun activities to help them learn about looking after their teeth, healthy diet and what happens when they go to the dentist. Toothtastic Tuesday was organised by Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, Jacqueline and Nikki from Childsmile and the Nursery staff and it was lovely to have around 20 parents join us on the day to help the children as they moved round the different activities.
The dentist’s role play area was very popular, as you can see from the photos, and Jacqueline helped the children learn why the dentist uses different equipment. We really appreciated her bringing lots of masks and mirrors so that each child could try out the equipment and understand that everyone needs a new dental mirror and mask to avoid getting germs.
There were also puzzles, a drawing activity, an opportunity to use the big teeth models to learn how to brush properly and an activity to measure out the number of spoons of sugar in different foods and drinks. Hopefully the children have learned which drinks and food are healthier for their teeth.
Thank you very much to Eileen, Jacqueline and Nikki for all their help and equipment. Thanks also to those parents who joined us on Toothtastic Tuesday. We think that the children had a fun learning experience.
Here are some photos of the morning children busy at the various activities. We will post photos of the afternoon children in the next few days.
