REDDAM EARLY LEARNING SCHOOL WOOLLAHRA NEWSLETTER Dee’s Message

28TH JANUARY 2022

Dear Parents and Caregivers, The staff and I are really happy to welcome you back to another year in the ELS. To those who have already been part of the Reddam House ELS family, we hope that the happy moments of the past will continue and be built upon during 2022. We trust that you will continue to involve yourself fully in the life of the school, all to the benefit of your special son or daughter. Then, a very warm welcome to those families who join us for the first time. While there might have been a few tears during the week, we know that it won’t be long before the children feel at ease in their new surroundings. The smiles of their new friends and the reassurance of the teachers will soon let them know that they are in a happy space, where they can feel loved and affirmed. Ours is a community in which we try to ensure that every person is valued. We know only too well that for the children to be happy, they must sense that the significant

adults in their lives are there for them, supporting them through the sometimesdaunting challenges of growing up. As such, we encourage parents and teachers to keep communicating throughout the year, so that the children have the support they need from both groups of adults. As the Early Years Learning Framework reminds us, children should be active participants in their learning and in their lives. We can also support and encourage them to gain their own individual ‘voices’ by providing an environment which is nurturing and caring, in which they feel safe to express their opinions and needs. This has been one of the very special aspects of our school and I trust that the children will continue to grow in the individuality and uniqueness. During the year, there will be opportunities for parents and family members to join us as we celebrate special events together or reflect on the beautiful art which the children have created. We would love you
