It is soon to be the turn of the afternoon children for a read and play session. You will see with your child’s library book on Friday 11th that you got a card to fill out with regards to how much you look at books with your children and if you do any follow up activities relating to the books. Please fill these out and return to nursery as these are to do with the Read and Play pilot project being carried out in partnership with Action for Children.

On Tuesday 22nd September Lydia Simpson will be coming to nursery to read a story and do some fun craft activities directly relating to the story with the afternoon children. These have been really enjoyed by the children in the past. We are then inviting the afternoon parents to come along to take part in a session with their children to show how much fun and how easy it is to do activities relating to story books with items you can find around your home which really help the children to gain more learning and understanding from the story without realising they are doing so! This will be on Tuesday 29th September  1pm – 2pm, and 2pm – 3pm. Please let staff know which of these sessions you would prefer to attend.
