The start of our Chinese New Year celebrations!

It's important for us to provide opportunities to extend our children's knowledge and understanding about the world. We are passionate about learning about other cultures and religions at Ide.

Inclusion and Diversity is a huge part of Early Years, introducing our children to new cultures in a fun and interactive way from a young age is extremely important. We help children develop positive attitudes towards diversity and inclusion.

We have opened our own Chinese Restaurant in Apple Class which is filled with loose parts to encourage our children to use their imagination!
Loose parts enhance children's ability to think imaginatively and see solutions, and they bring a sense of adventure and excitement to children's play (Daly and Beloglovsky, 2015).

We are passionate about bringing loose parts into our provision to watch the children become creative and grow a love for learning.

We loved our visit from Tiny Travels. Tiny Travels offers young children a fun, interactive, educational opportunity to learn about different world cultures. We enjoyed learning about different African countries. 🌍 Tiny Travels

At Ide Pre-School we ensure positive attitudes to diversity and difference. Not only so that every child is included and not disadvantaged, but also so that they learn from the earliest age to value diversity in others and grow up making a positive contribution to society.🌍

Exploring the outdoors with our friends🍂
We have been exploring our outdoor space. Outdoor play is extremely important in Early Years, it helps develop confidence, social skills, communication, motivation, physical skills, knowledge and understanding. We are lucky our Pre-School is based in a beautiful location in Ide.

Today Ide Pre-School went on our first school trip to Bear Town. The children were very excited travelling on a coach to and from there.

We were lucky enough to have exclusive use of Bear Town for our visit. The children loved exploring and learning through play throughout the 12 unique role play areas.

Our children were so well behaved, and even tidied up to the ‘tidy up song’, before we returned to Pre-School.

Avoid the problems of lost property and buy these amazing fuss free labels. No more sewing or ironing on name labels. These labels are fuss free and stick onto existing clothes labels, lunch boxes and drinks bottles. They are also wash and tumble drier proof.

Stinkins Name Labels packs last a long time, and more still, if you use the fundraising number 10434 Ide Primary School will earn up to 30% commission for the PTFA to use for our children.

Name labels are a suitable way to teach our children about taking responsibility for personal belongings. If a child knows their belongings are labelled, they are more likely to actually check that something belongs to them. Name labels remind them about personal responsibility and provide them with a way to actually put that idea into practice.

Why not order today ready for September. 😊
