Dear Parents,
Please note the following special events that will take place at Learning Ladder Nursery in JLT Dubai, during Term 2. Attached is also the overall plan that would be followed for the next three months:
· Fruit/Vegetable Salad: Thank you for sending in the fruits and vegetables on January 15th, 2014. The children loved learning about the different colours and textures and names of all the fruits and vegetables and also their nutritional and health benefits.
· Health Day: We would like to celebrate Health Day on January 27th, 2014 and the staff and children will be taking part in various activities involving various aspects of “Healthy Living” and we have invited a prominent health and nutrition consultant to come and have a chat with the children regarding the benefits of healthy eating and exercising.
· Small Mouths Program: On January 28th, 2014 Clair James Grisdale from Drs. Nicolas & Asp will be visiting Learning Ladder Nursery to conduct the Small Mouths program. Drs. Nicolas & Asp have been successfully running the small mouths program for thirteen years, and it was extremely popular with our children when they visited us last year. The program is conducted by Oral Health Educator Clair Grisdale who uses puppets, tooth models, and educational DVDs to capture the children’s attention. The children are shown a vital demonstration on the proper brushing, and flossing techniques and the importance of healthy eating and of brushing twice a day. The initiative is to empower our children for a brighter healthier smile in the years to come!
· Doctor’s Visit: We are pleased to inform you that Dr. Hussein from Armada Medical Center will be visiting Learning Ladder on February 6th, 2014 as part of our drive to ensure the health and well being of our children. He will be conducting the regular health check that will highlight areas such as the height and weight percentiles, and the general health of your child. We would be sending a copy of this report home with your child.
· Class Photographs: The nursery photographers will be coming to Learning Ladder Nursery to conduct the class and individual photographs of the children in the last week of February 2014. The exact date will be confirmed to you the end of this week.
· International Day: The children will have an opportunity to dress up in the traditional costume of their country and also bring traditional food to share with the other children to help them understand the different countries and cultures that live side by side in the United Arab Emirates. This will take place onThursday, February 27th, 2014.
· Sports Morning: The Bluebells and Daisy classes will be taking part in the Sports Mornings that will be held on March 3rd for Bluebells and March 4th for the Daisy’s. Exact timings will be confirmed closer to the time.
· Mother’s Day: Every year in March, we like to celebrate the most important person in our lives by getting the children to make special treats for their mummy’s. Mother’s day will be celebrated as per the UAE calendar on March 20th , 2014.
· Bicycle Wash: A hugely popular event last year, the children will get a chance to conduct their very own bicycle wash on April 2nd, 2014. The children thoroughly enjoyed this last year and we look forward to a fun filled event this time as well.
