Plough Green Pre-school

Dear Parents and Carers,


I hope that you all had a good week. The older children have been using the moldable foam in their ice cream shop (using it as ice cream) and have been using their early math skills when paying for the ice creams.  The younger children have really enjoyed completing puzzles this week (more early math skills).


Stories we are enjoying this week: 
'Nosey Norman' by Sam Lloyd in the two year room.   We use a story sack with this story.  
'Grandma's Beach' by Rosalind Beardshaw in the three/four year room (AM story)  
'Pirates Love Underpants' by Claire Freedman and Ben Cort in the three/four year room (PM story) 

 
Just for fun:  Why not make some fruity ice lollies with your child.  You could try Watermelon:  Halve a small watermelon, scoop the flesh out of one half into a bowl (you need about 375-400g). Pick out any black seeds. Purée the flesh using a hand blender or in a liquidiser. Fill ice lolly moulds with the purée, push the sticks in if you are using them, and freeze for at least 3 hrs, or overnight. (Any leftovers could be frozen in an ice cube tray). (Adapted from a BBC Good Food recipe)


Next week is our last week at pre-school before the summer holidays.  Our last day is WEDNESDAY 15 JULY 2026 AT 3PM.

Have a good week
Plough Green  😁
