Birthday Party Fun

Over the last week the children have had lots of fun playing in the newly decorated role play area, which was transformed from being a kitchen area to a birthday party area.

There’s been lots of imaginative play going on with the children busy making cups of tea, counting out the cakes and laying the table!

They’ve also been making birthday cakes out of the playdoh and looking for the numbered candles  to put on the cakes.

We’ve been busy creating beautiful birthday party invitations and making birthday cards in Welsh, this has been a great way of introducing more Welsh language into our theme and this has been carried through to circle time by Aunty Erin & Aunty Ellen who have been reading a book called ‘Ble Mae Twts?’ (Where is Twts?) with the children joining in with the singing of ‘Penblwydd Hapus’.

 

Thank You

Look what arrived in the post today!

AlderHey

A thank you from Alder Hey for the £76.02 that was raised during our Where’s Wally party on May 22nd, we all had a great time at the party and it was lovely to see all the children (and Aunties!) dressed up as Wally for the day, once again thank you for your donations and support.

New Term

In preparation for the the new term, we’ve changed the name from Ffordd Dyffryn Playgroup to Seren Super Stars Playgroup.

Our new name and logo represent our vision for playgroup, to provide a high quality education through play and provide a safe and secure environment for the children to explore a range of exciting activities.

We return to school on Wednesday 2nd September to our newly revamped room and we can’t wait for the children to see the changes.

When we get back our theme will be ‘Me, Myself and My Busy Body’, where we learn all about ourselves, our bodies and our families etc.

Playgroup Uniform

Although we teach the Early Years Foundation Phase we do it through play based activities. As you can imagine we can get very mucky with paint, glue, gloop and mud etc with this in mind we would recommend the following clothing:
                                                  JoggersPolo Shirts

 

These can be purchased at a cheap price in ASDA/similar shops or if you would like the top to have the logo they can be purchased from Clothes For Work on Trinity Square, Llandudno. Please be aware we do not insist on the children wearing a uniform but would encourage this clothing merely to save the wear and tear on your child’s day to day clothing.

Playgroup will run term time only inline with Conwy school dates.
