FOUR YEAR OLD PROGRAMME

Term 3 2013
Every Wednesday 
 11:30am-12:30pm
Koru Hub

What is it?
For one hour a week four year olds who are pre-enrolled to start at Amesbury School can join other four year olds (and some new entrant school children) in some activities.  This gives the opportunity to meet the children who will become their friends, to build relationships with the teachers, to become familiar with the school environment and for parents to get to know each other and ask questions.  

When do we start?
You can attend as soon as your child turns four years old, however some parents find that if they attend these sessions too far out from their starting date it can be a very long wait for the child until the first day of school, so come along when it suits you.  Many parents find it is best to come along a term before their child starts school. 

Where do we go?
Any week you wish to attend just show up in koru hub and join all the children for the story at the orange carpet. As part of a ministry requirement we ask that parents stay on site during these visits.  

We look forward to seeing you there!

Michael, Demelza, Jeanelle, Lisa and Angela
