Langley

Dear Langley Friends

We have had a wonderful week in the Langley room. We started our week with the story “Press Here’ by Herve Tullet. 



The children just loved listening and watching what happens to the dots in the story.  Many were amazed at the ‘magic’ of the dots. Ethan quickly sat up and watched in anticipation to what was going to happen to the dots next.  We followed this up with a painting experience during our morning play time.  Whilst the children were painting Frankie started singing “Dot, dot, dot…” and soon enough they all started singing along with her ‘Dot, Dot, Dot…”.  If you have not read the story see if you can find it at your local library, as it is lots of fun to read.

We are lucky enough to have some new ‘class mates’ within our room.  Have you spotted them yet? They are small, shy and scuttle about.  They are hermit crabs.  Over the week the children have taken a keen interest in these new small animals.

Aeson- He's gone in his shell. Ohhh it's coming coming out
Amelia- It's moving now

Ethan- One come out


Our dance lessons with the lovely Miss Erin from Dancify have also started on Thursdays. It’s wonderful to see the children moving and grooving and learning some new dance moves!

Please remember to pack an ELC hat for your child from next week as our Sun Smart policy has now kicked in. These are available from the Uniform shop if you do not already have one. Please ensure that they are clearly named.

In case families, still are unsure of our contact details they are as follows.
