After School Club

Newsletter Term 1

Welcome
Welcome back to term 1 for 2017/2018. This year we welcome our new primary one children to the After School Club. Welcome to Emily Eaton, Evie Charvin, McKenzie Dennison, Grace Gray, Torin Guse-Jepp, Amber Robb, Elsie-Mae Daly, Lewis Spence, Holly Spence, Sarah Caskie and Ethan Charley.

We are also soon to be welcoming Karen Davidson who is joining Leanne in ASC. Karen has lots of experience in this avenue of childcare and we are happy to have her as part of our team at Sunshine.

Topic
This term we will be focussing on recycling and how we can turn our recyclables into fun and creative crafts.

Wii Games and DVDs

In order, to encourage the children to utilize more of the resources within the ASC, we have decided to restrict the Wii games and DVDs until after tea time if the weather prevents us from being outside. Please feel free to chat to us with any queries or suggestions you may have regarding this matter.

Thanks

We would like to express our thanks to Lizzie Brooker for the very kind donation of some of her books to the After School Club. This was a most generous gift and we appreciate it very much.

Road Safety

Once again, can I ask for all parents to promote and encourage road safety with their children. When crossing the road from the hall at busy times its very important for the children to be aware of their road safety.

October Holiday Club

Please see the programme on the website and book early to avoid disappointment.
