Topic – Chinese New Year/Fairytales
From the 1st to 9th February the children will be learning about the customs and traditions associated with Chinese New Year and we will be having a visit from Stella Tsang an active member of the Chinese community in Northern Ireland. The role play area will become a Chinese restaurant and the children will be learning rhymes and listening to stories around this topic. After half term the children will be listening to a range of fairytales at story time and they will have opportunities to retell the stories using fairytale characters or making up their own fairytales. The role play area will become a workshop just like Geppetto’s in the story of Pinocchio. The outdoor play house will become the 3 bear’s cottage. The children will be encouraged to use mathematical language associated with size and comparison. We will use the story of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ to highlight Stranger Danger and the children will be challenged to use a range of construction materials to make a new chair for baby bear, a strong house for the three pigs and a bridge for the three Billy Goats Gruff.

Parent Teacher Interviews
Nursery interviews will be held on Monday the 12th and Tuesday 13th March. There will be 10 minute slots available from 9.10 to 4.00 on both days. There is a sheet available on the Parents’ notice board outlining the days and times. Please choose a time that would suit you and write your child’s name in the appropriate box. I appreciate that many of you are working and do not drop off or collect your child from nursery. If this is the case, please if possible, get your child minder to write your child’s name in a time that would suit. If the days or times do not suit, an alternative day and/or time can be arranged by contacting Mrs Addis between 11.45 and 12.15 or after 3 on the number at the top of the news sheet.
Fresh Fruit
Please send in one piece of fresh fruit every Monday or if school is closed then the next day it is open.
Vaseline tins
[pic] If you have any small empty vaseline tins please wash them and send them into nursery as we are collecting them for an activity we would like to do with the children.
Toys
Just a little reminder that children should only bring a toy to nursery on a Friday for show and tell. Recently there have been a number of children arriving at nursery with toys on other days. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Website
Please have a look on the school website .uk
There are paintings from our gallery and you will also find the news sheet there too. After Mrs Tsang has been in to talk to the children about Chinese New Year there will be photographs on the website documenting her visit as well as the visit we had from our local library on the 30th January and the 7th February.
