Lost property, there is a box of lost property outside the entrance to Kindergarten. Please check to see if any items belong to your child! Early Years Foundation Stage [EYFS], if you would like to understand more about your child’s development please visit: www.foundationyears.org.uk/eyfs-statutoryframework where EYFS for Parents – What to expect, when? can be found. If you have any questions then a member of staff will be happy to answer them. Topic, this term the topic is “growing”. If you have any ideas that can support this topic please speak to a member of staff. As the weather gets warmer we aim to be outside more and it is helpful to us if all bags, clothes etc. can be clearly named and if children could have sun hats and sun cream in their bags. Sainsbury’s vouchers, these are now coming to an end so if you have any vouchers at home please bring them in to Kindergarten so we can exchange them for resources. We have been able to order some fabulous equipment in the past thanks to the voucher scheme. Numbers, we have reached the end of the alphabet and will now be looking at a number each week using Ten Town, we will begin with zero. If you would like more information on this please speak to a member of staff. We will continue with the Letters and Sounds programme by singing, playing games, rhyming, musical activities and other similar experiences. Early Years Pupil Premium, this is funding available to families in receipt of certain benefits. If you think you may qualify please speak to a member of staff. This funding is to support the children within the setting. Parental Questionnaire, as part of our partnership with parents, you will shortly receive a copy of our parental questionnaire.
