December 2023
Wow, what a year it has been! We spent this month reflecting over the past year and the joy and happiness your children have provided us over the past year. We have welcomed new faces and said goodbye to some but we most importantly are ending the year looking forward to seeing what the new year brings us!
Baby Cottage
The babies have loved having festive pictures and joining in with snowy scenes for messy play. One of the most popular things to play with this month was cardboard boxes, we have loved sitting in them and drawing in them! It’s been a nice month of festivities and we hope everyone has a lovely Christmas and new year!
Toddlers
On the lead up to Christmas Toddlers have been getting into the spirit by creating mince pies! We have also been talking about the importance of cleaning our teeth and using the animals to help with this!
Rising Three’s
This month we have been doing lots of fun Christmas activities. The children were very interested why Santa like to eat so we decided to make some yummy mince pies.
We also made Christmas party hats ready for Christmas dinner day.
Preschool
Preschool have had a super busy month getting ready for Christmas! We held a lovely Nativity for our Parents and were lucky enough to show it to the Local Care Home too.
We have also made snowmen in playdough, creating a winter wonderland. We cooked Christmas Cookies, exploring letters in our names and used them in guessing games.
We were lucky enough to have a visit from Wessex Water and the Dentist this month too!
Wessex water we explored different jobs, where our water comes from and what we can do to help look after water. We also learnt all about Oral Heath with the Dentist.
