Good Work Certificates

Teddy is now fully recovered from his operation and no

longer has to wear his special coat. He has been

out and about this week and has enjoyed listening to the

children’s poems on Tuesday.

Teddy has been working with several children on a

one-to one basis this week, helping them to stay calm and focus on their work.

visit. There will be an opportunity to meet the staff and look round the

Nursery. No need to book, just come along. Everyone welcome!

On Friday 20th March (9.15am to 10.15am) we would like to

invite mums and female carers to a special assembly followed

by a fun workshop in your child’s class.

Poetry Workshop

Andy Tooze, a published poet who wrote “The Poetry Bug”, came into school on Tuesday.

The children had an assembly followed by individual class workshops, where they

worked with Andy to write their own poems!

In the afternoon there was an open assembly for parents and carers to come and see and hear some of the children’s creative poems.

This half-term the children have been making

cookies in their cooking lessons. The recipe is

attached at the back of the newsletter if you would like to bake them at

home too.

Class photos will be taken on Tuesday 17th March. Proofs will be sent home giving details of how to purchase either through

the school or on-line.
