Pre-schools’ News – Week 10

Dear Families,

What an engaging week we have had at both St Mark’s and St Michael’s Pre-School, despite the unpredictable weather! It has been wonderful to see the children making the most of each day, embracing the outdoors, and continuing to explore and learn in all conditions.

As the weather continues to change, we would like to gently remind you to ensure that your child is well equipped for all types of weather. We love to make the most of being outside, so please send your child with rain gear as needed.

As the saying goes, “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing.” This is certainly true as we have seen our children happily engage with nature in whatever conditions arise.

We are also excited to share that the learning for Term 1, focusing on the PYP Transdisciplinary Theme: Who we are and the Central Idea: Our connections to people, places, and culture give us a sense of belonging, has really come to life. It is clear that the children have built meaningful connections, made new friendships, and most importantly, developed a strong sense of belonging within our Pre-School community. This sense of belonging is such a wonderful way to round up the term, and it will be something they can draw upon as we begin Term 2. We look forward to seeing how these connections continue to grow as we move forward into the next term.

Kind regards,

Abigail McFarlane
Pre-schools’ Coordinator
