Staff update


Staff news

As from the 5th November, Jo T from the nursery room will be joining the preschool team. This will be a wonderful transition for all the children transferring from nursery to preschool to see a familiar face. Jo worked with the preschool age group a few years ago and is looking forward to implementing some new ideas.

Some more exciting news… Sam K of the nursery room is expecting her first baby in April 2013, here at Clover Court pregnancy seems to come in 2’s so watch this space…

You may remember Stacey F from preschool; she went on maternity leave last year; sadly she will not be returning to Clover Court so we hope you join us in wishing her all the best for the future.

Food for Thought..... ???


Child’s Play

Oh, what a busy morning

 

I’ve been playing with the dough and with a little help upon a card, I learned to sew.

 I helped my friend “Nurse Sarah” to perform an operation,

Then fixed the track together for my train and built a station. I popped inside the Wendy house to make a cup of tea, and i stood by the cooker making lunch for twenty- three!

I completed three whole jigsaws

I played a new board game. I had a turn on all the bikes, the slide and the climbing frame.

I handed around the biscuits at milk and biscuit time, then listened to the story and sang a nursery rhyme.

But now the mornings over and the mummies are all waiting,

I hope my mummy doesn’t say –

“I wish you had done a painting”
