Welcome!
Term 1 has begun and we are ready to embark on our Nursery Learning Journey.

It will take a little time for the children to adjust to the new routine, and it is a traumatic experience for all involved.
For some toddlers, goodbyes are full of tears, screams, and outbursts. Young children form tight relationships with their parents, so it's natural that as a child grows, she'll be hesitant to let go of feelings of familiarity and security. Although it may be difficult to hear a child cry, remember that separation anxiety does have a positive aspect: It indicates that a healthy attachment has bonded a caregiver and child. Try talking your child through the process of leaving; tell him/her that you love him/her and let him/her know you will return. If it helps, offer them a favorite stuffed animal as a soother in your absence. Keeping a regular routine can help children develop a feeling of control over daily situations. Say "See you later" or share a secret handshake as a clear and consistent indicator when saying goodbye.

I am very excited about the year and here are some highlights of our first day.
