Reviewing our equal opportunities calendar we have started to celebrate all of our recorded celebrations we may not have celebrated previously.
For example:
- Birthday of Queen Elizabeth II
- Whit Sunday
- Pentecost Sunday
- The Queens official birthday
- Dassera
- Passover
- Divali
- Eid
- Raksha Bandham
- Mandy Thursday
- Lent
- St. Georges Day
- Hanukkah
- St. Andrews Day
- Day of Atonement
- Black History Month
- Asian Arts week
- St. Swithins Day
- Navarithri beginning.
If you have a particular festival or celebration you carry out at home please inform us so we can join in your celebration.
We have also discussed as a team reviewing our visits to other places out of nursery. One of our targets is to take a trip out of the nursery as often as possible, linking this in with our festivals and celebrations.
I am looking for your feedback and opinions on visiting religious sights e.g.: churches, cathedrals and mosques.
We are also looking into having more visitors coming into the nursery, we have previously had a visit from a dentist and children really seem to listen and interact well.
Feel free to put ideas forward and opinions are more than welcome.
