Thank you to everybody who came along to join the fun at our first Let’s Play session. Lots of parents and siblings joining in for a really family focused approach to play!
A coffee and cake date has been set for Thursday 29th March for any parents who may be interested in coming along to our new ‘Let’s Play’ programme.
Let’s Play is as it reads…..all about play and the importance of playing with your child.
For parents that are interested, I will be following up with a play session over the Easter holidays. This will be a half day play session on Friday 6th April, no costs are involved and you can bring along older or younger siblings!
In July, I will be offering three more no cost play sessions, again siblings are welcome. On these sessions, parents spend time participating in fun and interactive workshops whilst the children (including siblings of any age) play in the playroom/outdoor area before joining together for half hour play at the end of the session.
There are information leaflets on the ‘PoPP’ table in the foyer – please help yourself and speak to me if you are interested.
Are you ready for our Easter Bonnet competition on Wednesday 28th March?
Bring a homemade bonnet for our parade and to enter our competition.
This is taking place on the same day as our Easter Craft Day where you are welcome to stay and join in with some Easter crafting.
Our friendly Easter Bunny might also make a special appearance!
Balta and Texa playrooms are focusing on a sensory Easter craft day, so if you are coming to join in please wear old clothes as it may get a bit messy!
Our Family Centre Teacher, Gary Train will be hosting a Coffee and Chat with the theme ‘School Application Week’ on Tuesday 9th January at 9am and again at 1pm. Gary will have information available about making an application and will be able to answer any questions you may have.
Parents and carers of children who will be aged five between March 2018 and February 2019 should apply to their local denominational or non-denominational school at this time.
For parents who are making an application for Isobel Mair School the process is slightly different. You may have already had discussions around this process however if you are in any way unsure, please speak to Donna or Joanne.
Are you looking after yourself as a parent? Do you feel you have a strong relationship with your child? Would you like to try out different behaviour techniques and special ways of dealing with more difficult behaviour through play?
If you answer yes to any of the above then please come along to Donna’s ‘PoPP In’ session on Thursday 7th September at 9am or 1pm to find out more about the Psychology of Parenting Project.
Donna is trained in delivering the Psychology of Parenting Project and can talk you through what the course entails, answering any questions you may have.
Courses are fully booked at the moment (it’s proving extremely ‘PoPPular’) however recruitment for groups starting in the New Year is ongoing.
For more information on what PoPP can do for you, come along to PoPP In!
Please click on the link below to view a copy of our new yearly planner for 2017 – 2018.
We have tried really hard to establish all the dates 100% however please be aware the dates could possibly be subject to change given any unforeseen circumstances that may arise.
Printed ‘fridge friendly’ versions are available from the foyer.
We hope you find this useful….let us know what you think!
Many parents have asked about user names and passwords for Parent Pay. We are working really hard with the office to ensure these are issued as quickly as possible.
