Newsletter WE 5th December


Dear Parents,

We have been busy preparing for our EYFS Christmas show this week, which will take place on Wednesday 17th December.  The children have been learning lots of Christmas songs with Mr Robbie.

In the classroom, the children have been enjoying playing in Santa's Workshop.  They have been dressing up as Santa, making and wrapping presents as well as making wrapping paper.  We have been focusing on Christmas stories such as 'Panta Clause loves Christmas', Spot's Christmas', Duck and Goose: It's Time for Christmas' and 'Snowmen at Christmas'.

We introduced our special Advent calender at the beginning of the week.  Everyday a different child is asked to trim Santa's beard.  Some children have been asking why Santa has a beard!

We have introduced a range of Christmas vocabulary to the children such as:

-Father Christmas/Santa
-Snowman
-Presents
-Rudolph the red nosed Reindeer
-Christmas tree
-Baubles
-Star
-Stocking

We will be continuing with our Christmas theme until the end of the term.  We will also be having a class Christmas party in the last week.  More details to follow soon.
