Smarties Nursery

Polite reminder that we are closed Friday 19th June for a staff training day 🙂

As continues this is our reminder that babies and small children are most likely to drown at home in the bath or in the garden.

That's why our key message is to keep them in arm’s reach in water.

Many parents mistakenly believe bath seats will keep their baby safe, with potentially tragic consequences.

Please help us spread the message that bath seats are not safety devices.

📚Our take-home bags have had an upgrade!🎒

We are now using clear bags along with bigger labels to make them much easier to spot when looking for a bag! We have also added some puzzle bags!

Our take-home bags are such a lovely way for children to share a little bit of nursery at home with you. They support quality time together, conversations, confidence and lots of fun learning through play!

We love seeing the children get excited to take them home!💜

🚒 Fire Engine Visits Nursery! 🚒

We have been very lucky to enjoy not just one, but two exciting visits from Kent Fire and Rescue Service recently!

The children had a wonderful opportunity to sit inside the fire engine, spray the hose, and learn all about the important work that firefighters do. They were fascinated by the different equipment carried on the engine and enjoyed finding out how it helps keep people safe

A huge thank you to the Kent Fire and Rescue Service for taking the time to visit us and provide such an engaging and educational experience for the children! 👨‍🚒🚒

The children in pre-school had a great time this week practising their number recognition and number writing. They all had a go at writing the numbers in the shaving foam as well as doing lots of counting!🔢

A Heat-health alert has been issued in the South East. Please look out for vulnerable family members, friends and neighbours during this time. For tips on staying well in hot weather visit: https://loom.ly/z94AQJU
