This week we held our first ‘Learning Through Stories’ session. The course runs for five weeks and is delivered by Megan Sour. The first half of the session parents learnt techniques in how to engage their children in stories. For the second half, parents were joined by their children and put to test the new skills they had learnt. The first book to excite the children was ‘Handa’s Surprise’. The children made their own books and enjoyed some yummy fruit.
Another great session at St. Clement’s Stay and Play. This week we had new families come along and join in the fun. The children enjoyed using the soft play area and playing with construction toys. The babies too had a fabulous time in the ‘Teddy Reading Pit’ – sharing stories with their parents and friends.
Wednesday 9am – 10am St. Clement’s School Hall
The first week back to St. Clement’s Stay and Play and the children couldn’t wait to get started. They enjoyed seeing each other after the holidays and spent sometime outside playing together. Song time is still a much loved part of the session and the children are becoming more involved in singing along.
Look out for next weeks session or come along and join in the fun!

Thanks to the sunshine, we enjoyed some time outside this week. The children were able to experience new things and interact with some of our Early Years children. The water play was very popular, which caused a few sad faces when it was time to come inside.
Again song time was enjoyed by all. This week we danced the morning away to ‘Twinkle Twinkle’ and ‘If you’re Happy and You Know it’.
Come and join the fun Wednesdays, 9.00am – 10.00am, St Clement’s School Hall.
