Week 6 of 1st Half Autumn Term @ Beddington
10th – 14th October 2022
Next week we are going to explore Autumn. If you are going to the park, we would love you to collect some conkers, horse chestnut leaves, pinecones, acorns, oak leaves and sticks that we could use, Thank you!
We will also be making a post box and writing some letters; making an obstacle course; exploring numbers and much more!
Please remember to phone or text in if your child is not going to be at preschool, particularly if they are ill, so that we can inform other families if there is an illness or bug going around. Thank you!

“r” and “m”
The short songs can be found on the internet.
2-a-day stories.

Remember… to put a change of clothes in your child’s bag in case of accidents! Could you also remember a bag to put the nappy/wet clothes in. Thank you!
While we can, we aim to start the morning off outside if possible and spend much of the session outdoors, your child may need a light rain jacket or coat as the weather can be changeable at this time of year.
