Notes from your Pre-School Teachers: Jeanna, Eva, Lucy, Sima, Roshelle, Kirandeep, Carmela and Tanya: Focus: Transitions and Summer Holidays This is also a request from us: please can you avoid bringing in toys from home. When they are lost, it causes a lot of upset. They are NOT our responsibility to look after so please take them with you when you drop off your child. Our end of term parties will be on Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th July. Our dressing up theme will be Princesses and Superhero’s for both days so please feel free to dress up as much as you wish! If your child doesn’t want to dress up, do not force them as we have dressing up here they may want to wear later. Our Food List will be up this week so please pop your name next to something you would like to provide - we will not be accepting home cooked food this year as we have no way to keep it warm and also please provide sealed packets or cartons. We are continuing to work on our transitions to school or school nursery with those who will be leaving us this year. At home you can help support us and your child by going to visit the outside of their school so they are aware of the new route they will be taking, purchasing or looking at their new uniform together and talking to them about what they will be doing at their new school. You can also access the documents from the London Borough of Hounslow we have been sending out via ParentMail, Facebook or the EyLog. They are titled Getting ready for School and have some great advice in there. We have a busy few last weeks at pre-school and there will be a lot of free play for the children who will be retuning to us in September. On the last day of term, please be prepared to receive artwork, school bags which will need a refresh for September and other bits we may have left over at pre-school! Targets to work on @ home To help support with your child’s transition to their new school, involved your child in the process. Allow them to choose their new lunchbox or pencil case, take them to buy their new uniform, walk them to their new school gates so they are aware of the route and talk to them about the changes they may face.
Bangles and Bracelets: Please do not send your child in jewellery such as necklaces, bangles or bracelets unless there is a religious reason for this. They pose a health and safety risk to the child and we are not responsible if they break or are damaged while the child is at pre-school. If it is not a religious item - please do not send your child in with it. Thank You.
Please remember to label all children’s belongings especially if they are new! Children will have the same bags, coats, jumpers etc. Just a small set of initials on the label inside will be perfect. It will prevent things from going missing.
Sun-cream: If you child is with us full time, please supply a bottle of sun-cream for us to keep at the nursery. We will label it and it will only be used for your child. If you are part time, please apply sun-cream before the start of your session.
