Cart Mill Chat

Apologies, but due to a technical error, we are unable to send out Cart Mill chat in the usual way today. We hope to have this rectified by Monday morning but in the meantime, here it it!

Cart Mil Chat

Dear Parent/Carer

What an exciting week we have had with science opportunities using the rainy weather as a provocation. Junk modelling is continuing to be incredibly popular linking to space – look out for our Cart Mill robot!

Maternity Leave
Today we said goodbye to two of our colleagues as they finish for their well-earned maternity leave. Sarah-Jane, our senior child development officer and Lorraine, our early years playworker both finished today to have a few restful weeks before their new bundles of joy arrive! The children made beautiful cards and even suggested names for the new arrivals.

Spring Crafts – Family Event
We are looking forward to our Family Spring Craft event taking place from 18 – 22 March. This will be a wonderful opportunity to come in and spend some time with your child making spring creations.

Junk Modelling
We are still looking for your junk! The children love creating models from boxes and cartons. They especially love sticking lots of small boxes together to construct amazing creations so if you have anything destined for the recycle bin, send it in to us! Please remember to wash all cartons before dropping them off.

Care Inspectorate
Please see attached questionnaire from Care Inspectorate. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us to improve and make sure we are getting it right for our families.

Planning Interests

We have displayed children’s interests at our reception area on our planning sheets, we would love for you to have a read and add on any interests from home. Post-it notes have been supplied for you to let us know what you are doing. We will then look for opportunities to continue this learning within our provision.

Many thanks for your continued support,

The Cart Mill Team

Bye bye babies

Today we said goodbye to two of our colleagues as they finish for their well earned maternity leave. Sarah-Jane, our senior child development officer and Lorraine, our early years playworker both finished today to have a few restful weeks before their new bundles of joy arrive! The children made beautiful cards and even suggested names for the new arrivals.

These included Spiderman, Baby Spiderman, Rainbow, Kelsie, Forever Baby and Teddy Bear. I wonder which of these fabulous names Sarah-Jane and Lorraine will pick!

After giving over lots of lovely gifts, we sang songs and said goodbye but thankfully it is not forever. We cannot wait for the babies (and their mummy’s) to visit us at Cart Mill.
