Pets & Vets
On Monday we welcomed a new Pre-School Assistant, Marta, to our happy setting and it already feels like she has become one of the ‘gang’. She has made many new little friends over the course of the week and she says she is coming back next week, so we are all very pleased about that!
Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum!

The ‘Listening Rabbit’s’ listened very intently to the story and on another day they listened to the CD version which really held their attention.

We looked at the different colours and sizes of the circles and used pens to add features – a few caterpillars, snowmen and funny faces! The listening rabbits found lots of circles in
Remembrance & Red
The theme this week was Remembrance and the colour red. The children made lots of different poppies… poppies on sticks, printed poppies, cut-out poppies and we mounted them on one of the display boards at Tiddy Hall – they also enjoyed painting cardboard boxes to make the Tower of London and a barge on the
