Welcome to the start of the new term. This term our theme is Amazing Animals. We are going to start the term by a visit from Ark Farm. They will bring miniature farm and small animals for the children to learn about. We will be learning facts about them. We will also be learning about Eid al-Fitr.
We will still carry on with the Traditional Stories linking into animals.

Welcome to Puffins
We are Livingstone Pre-School.
Children can attend the term after their 3rd birthday, for 15 hours per week. The sessions are 8.45-11.40 or 12.30-3.20.
The children in Puffins are starting out in their journey and we do lots of learning through play. Learning can sometimes be messy so if we come home dirty we have had fun!
Updates of learning will be upload regularly.
We like to hear about what you have been doing outside school.
Please send us your pictures to livingstonepuffins@gmail.com
