Nurturing early readers

Every session your child participates in the 3 Read Approach to Literacy programme, which involves daily storytelling sessions within a small group setting and the weekly home link resource including Sid and SHANARRI or Bookbug. Why not take some time over the next week or two to ask your child about the story they are reading.

In the Rainbow Room the children have reading Walking through the Jungle which the staff include in the Wednesday Bookbug session.

“Thank you to all the parents who joined Amanda at the Healthy Eating sessions on Friday 20th April 2018.  This was a huge success with lots of discussions surrounding the impact of nutrition, concentration and physical activity on a child’s  development and wellbeing.”

Please advise Lorraine by Wednesday 25th April 2018, of whether or not you intend to participate in the nursery summer outing to the Five Sisters Zoo and if you wish to travel in your own car. Many thanks.
