Jigsaw Preschool, Titchfield  – Autumn Term 2018                                                                                                                                                Welcome back to you all after what has been a long, hot summer break!  It is wonderful to see our children return, and to meet our new children and their families.  You are all very welcome. The children are all settling back into the pre-school routine and enjoying the various activities on offer.  They have been busy making playdough from scratch and mixing up and making their own paint for their wonderful little art masterpieces! Jigsaw, Titchfield has kindly been given a ‘garden’ area by Titchfield Community Centre which was cleared of weeds, nettles and brambles before the summer break, with the help of some amazing parent volunteers! We are currently waiting for weed suppressant matting and wood chippings to be laid before it is ready. This will be a fantastic opportunity for the children to enjoy and learn about planting flowers, vegetables, fruit & herbs.  We are all very excited about this new venture and will keep you updated on any progress!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              We also have exciting plans to move our preschool room over to the ‘scout hut’ building (other side of Titchfield Community Centre car park) where work has recently been carried out. New flooring has been fitted and fencing is being placed around an area at the back of the building which will become an outside area for our children to enjoy J We will keep you informed of progress. As the weather is gradually starting to change, could we please ask that you bring in a named coat and wellies for our daily walks. Thank you. We finish for our half term break on Friday 19th October and return on Monday 29th October.
