*STARS OF THE WEEK*

***I can show I am ready for school….***

 Mason - You are a star for always sitting beautifully and listening on the bug rug and doing as you are asked straight away.

Oscar - You are a star for eating your school dinners brilliantly and for being amazing at putting items back in the right places.

Ruby - Your pencil grip is brilliant and you have been working so hard at colouring inside the lines.

Fergus - You love to learn new facts and remember them brilliantly.  He are also amazing at picking up books without being asked which makes Rebecca very happy.

Zach - You are so good at talking in front of all your friends about your holiday -  sharing photos and items from your holiday.

Dear Parents,

Well we have had a lovely week.  I think the hot weather has slowed some of the children down, although not all.  It really has been holiday weather this week and we loved that Zach shared so much about his holiday with us.  we would really like to tahnk Mason's mum for providing as with an air-con unit it has made the Pebbles builiding more comfortable.

The children identified and coloured summer clothes on a colouring sheet.  The older children did this independently and the younger children were supported.

We have encouraged lots of water play this week, in the garden and outside area, in an attempt to keep the children cold.  So feet and hands, as well as scrumbing brushes have been in the water.

We also had a lovely walk when it was a little cooler on Tuesday morning.  After walking to the meadow, finding a bird shell and lots of insects we had our snack there and then walked down the track towards the orchard passed the farm.  The children walked brilliantly and then eat their lunch incredibly well.  

Next week we will continue to focus on holidays - finding places the children and teachers have been on holiday on a map or atlas.  If your child has been on holiday recently could they please bring in photos or could you email them to their key person so that we can look at them together and compare how the places and experiences are the same or different to home.

Have a lovely weekend. 

The Pebbles team.
