 This term the children of Hemyock Pre-School have been learning about construction and how to make objects using various items around the home and at pre-school. We've also been discussing our families and the activities we do together when we are at home.

 The rain and wind gave way to snow and it was a delight to see the glow on young faces as Hemyock turned white for a few days. For some it was a completely new experience and gave true meaning to all the pictures pre-schoolers had seen in storybooks and on the television.
Whilst the snow may have closed the doors at Pre-school for a day or two, it didn't stop the children eagerly learning about 'experiments'. We take so many things for granted as we get older and it's rewarding to see the astonishment on young faces when they pick up a magnet, or discover what happens when two or more coloured paints are mixed together.

 Unsurprisingly, winter has been a popular theme at pre-school, with brightly coloured snowmen and other chilly themes adorning the walls. The children have also been having fun learning numbers through rhymes and stories. Old or young, we all have a favourite story and the children have been sharing their own favourites with their classmates. As Chinese New Year approaches, the children will celebrate by tasting different food and dressing up in costume.

 The new children have settled in brilliantly and in November we welcomed Poppie Bright and Andrew Pyne. The children have been busy during autumn and during Guy Fawkes week they made rockets and painted colourful fireworks. Teddy Bears were our guests for
Teddy Bear week and we could not let the week pass without, of course, a Teddy Bear Picnic. The occasion was additionally special as Hemyock School Reception class came too! Dressing up is always great fun for pre-schoolers and the children did us proud on Children In Need day. The staff made a terrific effort too and ensured lots of fun was had by all.
