Eastington - Winner of Gloucestershire Vibrant Village of the Year 2010 16
We have had a very busy term so far, lots in store for everyone for the next few weeks ahead – please read on................... World Book Week We celebrated World Book Day on March 7 th and all that week the children were invited to dress up as a character from their favourite book - we saw some fabulous characters, Rapunzel came along together with Buzz Light Year and a scary spider! We aimed to encourage children to enjoy listening to stories together both at Playgroup and at home in preparation for school and their future interests. Comic Relief Week!! The week commencing 11 th March we helped fundraise for Comic relief and the children and staff wore their pyjamas and donated £1 towards this great cause – we also made cakes and biscuits to sell in our Playgroup ‘Bake Off’ to raise more money for people more unfortunate than ourselves. Pamper and Treat Evening We are having another pamper evening which will be held on 26 th April at the Eastington Community Centre in the evening. Again there will be lots of treats for all including beauty treatments, manicures and pedicures, massages and threading (eye brow tidy!). We will also have our tarot card reader again who was very popular so please come along and treat yourself, all money raised will go towards our next project which is based upon playing outside, digging, planting and growing seeds and the equipment needed for this. Isn’t it time we deserved a treat and some good company Last year our pamper evening was such a success so please come along!!! Topics for the half term For this half term our theme was about ‘Our Community’. We looked at different buildings and who lives and works in the village, looking at the world around us, occupations and different ways of life. We also had a role play shop and a school and we looked at numerals, counting and quantity to numbers. The children have also shown an interest in pets so we had a vets area and to support this we bought some new story books about ‘people who help us’ and ‘which animal would make a good pet’ – lots of ideas came forward, from dogs and cats to spiders and snakes!! Our playgroup offers care and education for all children from 2 ½ years to 4 years 11 months in a well established community based group. We offer your children a safe and stimulating environment in which they can grow and blossom into self confident, self reliant and positive little people. Our ultimate goal is to enable the children to have fun, explore and have the freedom to express their individuality, while forming the basis of their education. We currently have a few spaces left and operate 4 days a week offering full and half day sessions. We accept government nursery vouchers and other types of employer supported childcare vouchers.
