Week 3 has been outstanding. It was lovely to hear a visitor
come in and observe the Chapple children during outside play and comment how
wonderfully independent and social these children have become. We looked around
and watched them in their own world. Two even took part in an impromptu Q&A
session during a school tour. As an Early Years Educators, our aspiration
is to be the “Guardian at the gate.” We are nearly there.
In class they have been really engaged in patterning and
shape and becoming maths problem solvers.
We had a visit to a Pre School assembly on Thursday as part
of our transition. One of the Reception teachers came up to us afterwards and
said, “Wow! Weren’t they great, we are looking forward to them.” Next Wednesday
afternoon we go to see our Buddies’ assembly.
Chinatown was again another example of how the children have
developed. They were independent and such a credit to themselves and you, as
they toured the market. It was great to see them so engaged in their learning
and environment. Thanks for all the parents who came or offered to come.
Without such kind help, we would not be able to leave the Centre.
