The children all had a fantastic time at our Christmas party!

To the right of our communication board is our Makaton signs and Nursery rhyme of the month which is Hickory, Dickory Dock. Please sing this with your child at home and encourage your child to use their imagination to make up rhyming words for each verse as this aids prediction skills and phonological awareness. Awareness of Rhyming words assists your child’s knowledge of sounds within words and aids their ability to read, write and spell at a later stage.

We had a very successful Enterprise week in the centre. Raising a massive £575.00. thanks to everyone for supporting our Christmas market and raffle.
