New logo for Breaston
Pre-school Playgroup
|
|
Take a good look at
the new Breaston Pre-school Playgroup logo.
A great deal of excitement revolved around this event and
the children loved putting pen to paper to come up with their
best designs.
The winning
artists were Jessica Thomas, Ben Hickman and Andrea Pepios.
Many
thanks to the staff who managed to get artwork from the children
and to Mary Stewart of Long
Eaton Art Room for being a great judge.

Our
topic is “Shapes and Colours”. Please encourage children to
bring in items for show and tell. They can be either the colour
or shape - they don’t have to be both. Continue the learning at home by talking about the shapes
and colours around you: “What shape is a CD box?”, “How is
it different to a place mat?”, “What would happen if doors
were triangle?”.
