Coming up in May’s newsletter from Cashmore Early Years Centre, you can read about a wonderful run of celebrations across both age groups, with the children throwing themselves into activities for both Eid and Easter with real enthusiasm. In Hippo and Giraffe Groups, the two-year-olds have been creating glittery classroom decorations, decorating biscuits with icing, making chocolate Easter nests, designing Easter eggs with tissue paper, and enjoying both Eid lift-the-flap books and Spring and Easter stories. In Zebra and Tiger Groups the three-year-olds have been busy with an impressive range of creative activities including salt dough stars pressed with sparkly gems, henna pattern designs, loose parts art, and the beautiful book Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns for Eid, followed by salt dough Easter eggs, chocolate nests, and a brilliantly creative egg hunt in which all sixteen hidden eggs were found — including one inside a welly boot! You can also read about the Big Brush Club toothbrushing scheme and the excellent feedback recently received, including the news that a free toothbrush and toothpaste pack will soon be coming home, as well as information about the family photo boards, the reception library, summer safety guidance, snack and plant donations, and important details about preparing for the move to primary school in September.
