We extend a special welcome to all new  children and parents as we end our Spring Term.

We began our term by focusing on Chinese New Year and how people celebrate their cultures around the world, also looking at Shrove Tuesday, St David’s Day, and St Patricks Day.

In the second half of the term, we will look at different stories. Harry and the bucket full of dinosaurs, What the lady bird heard next, Rainbow Fish and Farmer Duck and now celebrating Easter.

Much of our planning follows children’s ideas on a daily basis and their numeracy and literacy skills are enhanced by their individual interests.

At Brighstone Preschool we see the outdoors as an important part of our learning environment. During the current circumstances, Government Guidelines advise that children spend as much time as possible learning outdoors. With this in mind, it is essential that all children wear suitable clothing, and we provide wellies and waterproofs. Outdoors is full of interesting and fascinating experiences where deep level learning can take place on a daily basis.

(Thank you for your payments of the consumable charge as this has helped us to be able to wash and re waterproof all our outdoor clothing).

See below for an interesting video of our plight. Please remember this is not just about us but all childcare facilities in the country.
