You are here: Curriculum > Supporting Your Child's Learning
Parents/carers are the prime educators of their child and have a great deal to offer the establishment. We want your input to have an impact on the learning and teaching within Shaw Mhor and we hope to achieve this through working in partnership with parents. On the Planning Wall you will find a copy of the Book or Rhyme of the Month which you can help your child to learn, as research shows introduction to traditional nursery rhymes help children with their pre-reading skills.
We develop Health & Wellbeing Week, Literacy and STEM throughout the year through inter disciplinary learning. We give “homework” to parents to allow you to support your child with the learning experiences he/she is accessing within Shaw Mhor. As well as this there will be PATHS “homework” for parents of children aged 3 – 5 years and we hope these tasks allow you some insight into the work we do with your child. We will keep you up to date through our Monthly Newsletter and or follow us on twitter. We would be interested in tapping into your individual skills for the benefit of the children and establishment in general. The staffs want to promote real partnership with you so that your child can achieve their potential e.g. joining staff and children with an activity; help with our garden; or as part of our self evaluation to improve our service. We also display new Policies in Reception area - please take the time to give us some feedback. We will also ask you through questionnaires for your views on the operation of procedures which affect your child e.g. vision, values and aims. It is very important for your child to have you or another family member at any special events we host throughout the year.
