Plough Green Pre-school

​Dear Parents and Carers,


I hope that you have had a good week.  We released our butterflies this week over several days as some took longer to emerge.  The children have really enjoyed watching them go through metamorphosis.


Stories we are enjoying this week: 
'Owl Babies' by Martin Waddell in the two year room.  We used props with this story.
'Scarecrow's Secret' by Heather Amery and Stephen Casrtwright in the three/four year room (AM story) 
The older children also looked at a giant book about the life cycle of a butterfly.  
'Farmer Duck'  by Martin Waddell in the three/four year room (PM story) 


Just for Fun:  Why not go for a walk with your child and see what you can see and/or hear?  Stop for a while and ask your child if they can identify what is making different noises.  Encourage your child's curiosity.


Dates for your diary:
  
HALF TERM:  WE ARE CLOSED FOR HALF TERM 26 MAY TO 30 MAY.
We return on Monday 02 June.

Photographer Tuesday 03 June:  (The photographer that has previously taken our photos has retired.  He recommended another person to us.)If your child does not usually attend on a Tuesday and you would like a picture taken of your child, please can you email me and let me know.  You will be able to bring your child in for a photo and then take them home again.

Farm Visit:  Mill Cottage Farm is visiting us again this year.  This is a lovely morning for the children who get to be with the animals and birds.  Previously we have had goats, sheep, donkeys, geese, ducks, turkeys, rabbits and pigs.  ALL OF THE CHILDREN are invited.  Please let me know if you do not usually attend on a Friday and you would like your child to experience the farm visit.


NOTES FROM THE COMMITTEE:
Open morning:  Our open morning is on  Saturday 14 June, 10am - 12 noon.  You will receive a letter after half term, along with some raffle tickets, with further details.  If you can help run a stall, provide items for the tombola, donate to the hampers, buy some raffle tickets or bring some cakes for us to sell then your support would be appreciated to help make the morning a success.  Thank you.


Have a lovely half term break  
Plough Green  😁
