The Teeny Tiny Tadpoles have arrived 😊

All ready for tomorrow Teeny Weeny Tadpole.

Dear parents and carers, Welcome back after the Easter holidays, how nice to have a warm bank holiday. We would like to welcome Harry. This term is a short one, the first half is only 4 weeks so the invoices will be for the full term, but you can split into 2 payments if you would like to.
We are continuing to have a story as a starting point each week as the feedback from children, parents and practitioners was very positive. Alongside the story we still have focused childre...n and will be asking for current interests and photos of the Easter holidays. The plan is for some of the stories to fit in with the season too, the first story is The Teeny-Weeny Tadpole.
Unfortunately, there are two elections in May, and we are unable to have the hall on Thursday 2nd and Thursday 23rd May. Therefore, we are offering sessions on the afternoons of Thursday 9th and 16th May, the funded children can transfer their funding and if any other children would like to attend these sessions, they are welcome to. You will need to pay for these two sessions separately to the invoice. All children will need a packed lunch. Please let us know as soon as possible if you would like to book places (I have all funded children on the list for both weeks).
The very exciting news is that from September we will be extending our hours to include breakfast and afterschool clubs. We are very nearly at the position to roll out our marketing campaign and you will be first to know. Please ensure you have booked your required sessions for September. We are very confident that we can continue the high quality, exciting and caring childcare experience over the longer hours.
The Belton pre-school children will be visiting the school weekly now and we will be contacting the other schools to arrange transition. While the Belton children are at school the other children will continue with the usual afternoon activities. The first visit is Monday 29th April.
We have some dates for your diary for the 2nd half of the term and we will be sharing the details in the next newsletter. If you can recommend a place to visit for our Summer trip on June 20th, we would appreciate some ideas.

Wonderful playgroup!

My son has only been going for a short time but was made so welcome and has come on in leaps and bounds!

I love the imaginative ideas the staff have to engage the children & the happy & fun environment there is for my child to learn & play�

This is a truly amazing playgroyp that i would recommend to everyone. Both my boys went here and loved it. The ladies are excellent and really engage with the children.

The most wonderful group of staff and the lovely setting have given my son the most encouraging and confident start. He has blossomed since receiving the support and encouragement from all the staff and the preparation for starting to school could not have been any better. I couldn't recommend any more highly to anyone.

My son has only recently started attending belton playschool,after being in a Nursery setting since the age of 1 this was the next step to prepare him for school.

Being the new boy was both daunting for both myself and my son however,we were both made to feel so welcome and supported by the excellent staff....my son now cries if he’s going to Nursery and not playschool.

In the short time my son has attended I have witnessed first hand The children thrive off child led learning and my son is always full of stories about his day when I collect him,I feel with my son attending this playschool it has helped to prepare him for the next chapter in his life.

The staff are second to none and always approachable to help and support,a through handover is given each day and I feel assured my son is in a safe,positive learning environment!!!!

Well done ladies from both me and Brooklyn xx

Having tried a variety of pre school settings for my children belton has been the best for my daughter. It's free flow set up allows children to gain independence by choosing the activities they want to participate in. They are fab at using a variety of resources and also including the children in community activities such as at the school, at the church. The staff are lovely and the children adore them. As a speech and language therapist as well as a mummy and having visited a lot of settings over the years I give belton preschool a big thumbs up.
