The appointment sheets are still in the foyer for you to choose a day and time that suits you best. We look forward to sharing all the progress with you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Woodland and Local Walks<br \/>\n<\/strong>Over the next few weeks, we will be going for walks in Linn Park. Children will be offered this choice as part of the ongoing provision and we will display a reminder on our noticeboard and in the foyer. The children get so much from connecting with the natural world with friends, exploring the local green spaces and being out in the community learning about local shops and business. \u00a0We also plan to visit the local care home to sing a few songs and have a chat with the residents. The children and residents enjoy these visits and offer a great opportunity to practise conversation skills. These local walks are already covered by the local outing consent forms completed by parents and carers when children start with us at Netherlee. We are sure that the children will share their learning with you when you discuss their day!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tie Gifting<br \/>\n<\/strong>We are very excited to invite you to our Nursery Tie Gifting for children leaving Netherlee Nursery to start school in August. This will take place on Wednesday 18th June and Friday 20th June between 9.45-10.30am.\u00a0 Both events will take place in the Saplings building. We kindly ask that a maximum of two guests per child attend the Tie Gifting.<\/p>\n<p>Please see dates and times below for the groups:<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday 18th June: 9.45-10.30am<br \/>\nOwl<br \/>\nDeer<br \/>\nRabbit<br \/>\nButterfly<br \/>\nFox<\/p>\n<p>Friday 20th June: 9.45-10.30am<br \/>\nOtter<br \/>\nHedgehog<br \/>\nSquirrel<br \/>\nBadger<\/p>\n<p>The ceremonies will take place in the outdoor play area at the back of the Saplings building unless there is adverse weather. Parents and carers should arrive through the Saplings gate and enter through the side gate in the P3\/4\/5 playground.<\/p>\n<p>Those not attending the tie gifting (including our younger children) on the above dates should still attend their normal nursery session. If your child does not normally attend on the days of the tie gifting, please just let us know should they still wish to take part- they are of course more than welcome!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sports Week<br \/>\n<\/strong>Our annual sports week is fast approaching and we have already started to make plans to ensure this is a fun and exciting week for all children involved. We have been very lucky in previous years that parents and carers have come in to deliver sports sessions and presentations to make this a very memorable week.<\/p>\n<p>If you have experience of coaching or participating in a sport, dance or any area of physical and mental wellbeing (Yoga, Pilates, Meditation) or you have links with a local club or group, Mrs Linn would love to hear from you!
