In response to particular children’s recent experiences we are planning to develop a hospital role play area within the Cara playroom. If you have any resources you think may be useful please let us know.
We are also planning a new mud kitchen for our outdoor grounds for learning. Do you have any pots, pans, chopping boards, utensils, oven cloths, tubs or items we could use to resource this area?
In addition, we would like to resource our expressive arts modelling area with some really nice recycled materials. We have plenty of cardboard cereal boxes and yogurt tubs etc. however less ‘fancy’ items. We are looking for gift boxes, ribbon, shells, corks, sequins and sparkles, large beads, fabric flowers and scarves, pieces of felt and lace, bows and clips and all things nice! We would be delighted to recieve any of these items from you – so have a good clear out 🙂
We are delighted to announce that following recent interviews for the vacant position of Child Development Officer, Miss Colette Graham – a well known face around the Family Centre – was the successful candidate and will now become the new key worker for the yellow group in Cara playroom.
Colette started her career at Isobel Mair Family Centre when she embarked on her training as a Modern Apprentice almost two years ago and we are delighted she has now secured a permanent position.
We wish Colette every success in her post.
