Little Tinkers preschool grove, lakes estate community centre

A big welcome back to our families returning after the summer break and a massive warm welcome to families who have joined the Little Tinkers Family we are so happy to see you all enjoying the start of the school year.

To help us all settle in our theme is all about me and my world. Over the next few weeks we shall be looking at who’s in our family, what we look like, what we like and dislike, our and emotions, our bodies and how to be healthy.

The children have done so well already identifying their eye and hair colour, talking about who lives in their house and pulling faces that go with each emotion.

So far we have learnt our Makaton signs for each emotion.

We have also been enjoying sharing together the book Colour Monsters.

🌞 Hot Weather Update – Next Week 🌞

With high temperatures expected next week, we will be making some temporary adjustments in preschool to keep everyone safe and comfortable, including changes to indoor and outdoor activities.
A lot of the activities will be water play based, in the shade or indoors.

✅ All children must wear light clothing. If your child has all in one swimsuit with sleeves they can wear these coming into preschool,
with a change of clothes in their bag if needed later.

✅ Please ensure your child brings:
A named water bottle
A named sun hat
Sunscreen (must be applied before pre school, with extra if needed bought into the preschool with your child's name on the bottle)
Ideally jelly shoes or crocs with backs, to keep their feet cool.

✅ extra clothes to change into.

✅ if your child is finding it too hot or difficult to cope with, we will call you and request they are picked up. Their health and well-being is our priority.

💙We will limit time in direct sun, provide regular water access, and use shade wherever possible. Lights will be off in the building to try to keep it cooler indoors💛
