Dulwich Village Infants - 2014 Reception RILEY (MISS LONG) Class meet up

[northdulmum]

Hello,

I was thinking of trying to arrange a few meet ups so the kids can get to know each other before September.

We could set up some Saturday afternoon play-dates in Dulwich Park?

We did this for our pre-school nursery and it worked a treat re settling i.e. having friendly, familiar faces in the first daunting few weeks of school. The kids seemed to like it too! ... sorry - it's Friday :)

Please respond, or pm me your email address if you'd like to join in.

Hello - people did this last year and the year before and it worked really well I think. Particularly for children who hadn't been at Half Moon Montessori (as there is normally a huge number from there going to DVI so plenty of familiar faces for those children). You might want to think about meeting up as a class group when you find out which class you're in though. My children don't really mingle with the children in the other two classes in their year much - although they are all perfectly friendly! Playdates etc tend to be mostly arranged intra-class. (By the way, all the Reception teachers are particularly great...!)

Helpful advice MrsSW - thank you

I now have about ten children keen to meet up over the summer. Do you know when we will hear about classes? As and when we hear, we could focus more on class meet ups. Makes sense.

You find out at the new parents evening. The first thing you do is pick-up your child's book bag which has a sticker with their name and class on it.
