20 January This week The Little Explorers were proud to recieve a trophy for making the most money on their stall at the Christmas Fayre. We were thrilled to win... a huge thank you to all who donated chocolate to the tombola.
9 January 2012 Welcome back Little Explorers & their grown ups and Happy New Year. We are raring to go this term and have lots to pack in! You should have recieved your new Show & Tell timetable by now, if not please ask us for another copy. Please have a think in advance about what you might create with your child. If you can take pictures of the process to bring in with the finished article even better but certainly not essential! Another new feature to term 3 is the introduction of some WOW words to their vocabulary. Did your child suddenly start using the words DIVINE this weekend? This was our word for the week, every Friday a new WOW word will be introduced. Look out for them in your child's every day speech! Finally you will notice that reading books are coming home this term... practise little & often. Let's have a great term!

We have also sent a slip advising you of your child's Key Person, this is either Mrs Taylor/MrsCroston or Miss Westwick. Both items will be displayed on the notice board in our cloakroom area. Please let us know if for any reason these have NOT reached you. Thank you. The FS Team
