Not the CCTV but from Nutmeg the Elf!

Dasher, Donner, Comet and Blitzen have been excitedly giving out the first delivery of Christmas cards today. A reminder that if your child would like to post a card, they need to write a child's name and class on the envelope to help our Reindeer helpers know where to deliver 🦌🎄🦌🎄💫

It was fantastic to have so many parents come along to talk with Mr Turner-Wing, Miss Coller and Mrs Johannesen this morning. The discussions and feedback will be really useful 💫 🍰 ☕️ 💬

**Just in case you need some parental support today! Here are some affirmations…

When our kids have an anger outburst 💥 😡 it’s hard for us to keep our composure.

We are not perfect, and raising kids comes with its challenges, especially in situations where we feel helpless.

It’s essential to give ourselves compassion and to realize it is OKAY to feel what you are feeling.

It’s OKAY to take a moment to collect your thoughts before responding.

It’s OKAY to create space for positive self-talk during these outbursts.

Hopefully, these parenting self-talk phrases will help you the next time your kid has an anger outburst.

The children in Mandela Class were learning about the relationship between the angle of incidence to the angle of reflection. 🔦 💡 💫

🥫Are struggling to afford groceries and food?

Why not join a local food pantry. It costs £3.50 a week for £20 worth of food, so you can feed your whole family for much less.
