We have started transition visits to the school next door to familiarise children with a school environment ( for those children going up to school in Sept 2013). To begin the focus is on becoming familiar with the school building and meeting key staff such as the administrator, reception teacher and headteacher, we also peep into the hall and check out the toilets.

Welcome to the new children who have started and we are looking forward to some of the younger children, from Broadway Playschoo,l beginning sessions at Towerview Playschool very soon.

We are contining our 'journey' around the world - visiting China, . THis week we screen printed the Chinese writing for snake - for Chinese New Year of the Snake. Writing ecipes and mixing of pancake batter allowed all the children be involved in th ewhole process from igathering ingrediaents to  flipping & eating a pancake.Valentines cards have also been created with lots of cutting and collaging going on.

Quite a few of the children have enjoyed playing tennis this week having lots of fun and learning to    share and take turns.
