HELPSTON PLAYHOUSE | YOUNG TRIBUNE
HELPSTON PLAYOUSE HAS EXCITING NEWS! Wow, what a start to the new year we have had at the Playhouse! At the Playhouse we are extremely passionate about promoting the children’s literacy development and this term we are excited to be working in close partnership with the National Literacy Trust. Lisa, our local Literacy Trust Ambassador has kindly provided us with some amazing literacy bags for the children which are supported by the Hungry Little Minds Campaign.
The Playhouse has some excotomg news! We are extending our provision to two-year-olds from Easter.
These literacy bags have provided us access to a great range of story books and activities that the children have thoroughly enjoyed exploring at pre school as well as those who are currently accessing their early years learning from home. This has provided a great opportunity to develop and build upon our parent partnership too.
We joined the Hungry Little Minds Family digital Day via zoom, where the children listened to a story read by the fantastic children’s author Nick Sharratt! He read the ‘Whales on the Bus’ to us which the children and adults thoroughly enjoyed as well as singing nursery rhymes with him! The children who attend the OOSC have enjoyed a wildlife themed few weeks where they created their own bird feeders, salt dough hedgehogs, delicious hedgehog bread and so much more. The children amazed us with how much they knew about hibernation and how the winter weather can have an impact on the animals and environment around us. Once the snow arrived the children and staff had great fun making snow men, igloos and we even tried to make our own snow. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
