37 Learning & Growing Myland Pre-School CIC We have had a busy half term as we have explored themes such as pets, Dads, vegetables, summer and sunshine, America, tennis and school. We congratulated Jackie at our Mother’s Day morning as she has completed 21 years’ service to the preschool! She was presented with an Olivia Burton watch and a bouquet of flowers along with a card and certificate. Well done Jackie and thank you for all your years of service – here’s to many more! We had Rob Sambrook, photographer come into pre-school to take photos of the children on Monday 22nd April, and this raised £87.17 in commission for the preschool. On Monday 29th April, we went on our trip to Easton Farm Park with all of the children leaving us to go to school. We had a fantastic day with nice weather and the children got to hug bunnies and have a tractor and trailer ride, as well as feeding the goats and kids, sheep and lambs. Friday 14th June saw us welcoming 19 dads and grandads into preschool for our Father’s Day morning. They enjoyed joining in with our activities and we rewarded them with a bacon roll and a cup of tea or coffee! We really enjoyed having them in preschool with us. On Wednesday 19th June we took part in the Barnardo’s’ Big Toddle. This saw the children doing the toddle around the local area, raising funds for both Barnardo’s and the preschool. This was followed by a teddy bears’ picnic in our garden, where parents and younger siblings joined in as well. The current total raised is £377. So that is £282.75 for Barnardo’s and £94.25 for preschool funds. For all the children taking the next step to primary school this year we completed transition forms and sent them to the schools and had the teachers from the various schools come into preschool to see the children here.
