Term 3's Fantastic Start!

Time has gone by so fast! We are now in our last term of the school year and F1 is just getting better! 

This week, 5 new children joined in our F1 family and we would like to welcome all of them and their families. We hope to make fond memories with all of you this term!

This term, our foci learning objectives are:

Personal Social and Emotional Development

-Build special relationship with other children.

-Learn that some actions can hurt/harm others.

-Express own preference/interest.

Communication and Language

-Understand 'who', 'what', 'where' in simple questions.

-Learn new words and use them in simple sentences. 

Physical Development

These learning objectives are what we are going to work on this term. We are hopeful that by the end of this term, children will either achieve the targets or at least make progress in these areas. 

* This week, the children have been showing a great interest in taking care of babies. In the soft play room, they have been pretending that they have babies in their arms and they cuddle them to sleep. With this interest, we will be transforming our role-play area into a nursery. *

NOTICES:

* Monday and Tuesday 2nd and 3rd of May - Public Holidays. No school. 

* Wednesday 4th May - School re-opens. 

* As the weather gets really hot nowadays, may we ask you to apply sunscreen on your child before school on Splash Pool days (Tuesday and Friday). Please also put in your child's hat in his/her bag for outdoor play time. 

* Home time routine - Thank you for cooperating with us with regards to our new afternoon routine. The children are now becoming more familiar with it and are becoming more responsible with their belongings. 

* For our new theme, may we request you to bring in your child's baby photograph/s. We will be making a gallery of their baby photos and will also be sharing them with each other at group time. 

Thank you!

Have a relaxing long weekend! 

Kind Regards;

Ms Crislet, Ms Grace and the F1 Team
