Christmas

  Hello all,

Although not everything went according to the original plan, the children enjoyed performing in the front of cameras and looked very festive. We will be sending the link for you to view the performance in the nest few days to watch in he comfort of your home.


We are all ready for a break and spending time with our families. We hope that you all stay safe and have a wonderful Christmas. We look forward to seeing you on Thursday the 6th of January.

Thank you for the wonderful gifts.

Best wishes from the Foundation team.

Hot Dogs

 Hello all,

We could feel the festive atmosphere in  foundation  this week. The children have been practising the songs for their Christmas concert and are ready to perform. We are looking forward to see you next week, all being well.

On Wednesday we enjoyed our Christmas dinner. The children had lots of fun when popping the Christmas crackers, wearing crowns and singing 'We wish you a Merry Christmas' for our dinner ladies to thank them for preparing their delicious food.



Unfortunately we could not light the fire outside due to the weather so Mrs Robinson, with the help of the children and some magic spells created a camp fire in our classroom.
We  enjoyed having a hot dog and a drink of milk around the fire.





Next week we will be performing our songs on the stage. Please can you send your child to school in Christmas clothes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Some children find this quite hard when they see their families. Please be reassured that we will be watching and supporting any child who is upset. 
We will update you if there are any changes to the performance due to Covid.
Have a great weekend.
Mrs Robinson

 This week we have decorated the unit and it is looking very festive. The children have enjoyed helping arrange the room, with lots of snowy areas and Christmas trees. We have continued to practice our songs so there is definitely a Christmas buzz in the air.  We cant believe how well the children are  established with the Foundation environment and routines, it is always a good time to reflect on learning and what progress the children have made since September which is quite evident from observing their interactions and learning on a daily basis. It is a pleasure to see.

 We will be having a busy couple of weeks and some of their normal routines will change due to Christmas activities. Sometimes this unsettles them a bit as it becomes overwhelming. Please be reassured that we  will support the children if this happens as it a normal emotion for them to have. Please speak to me if you have any concerns about it.

I hope you all have a great weekend.

Regards

Mrs Robinson:)
