This Month’s Edition
Welcome to the September edition of the
The new academic year is upon us already and you’ve probably spent the past few weeks busily preparing for your new intake – where did the summer go?!
September is also a busy month here at Parenta HQ. The team is really looking forward to Childcare Expo Midlands in Coventry on 27th and 28th September; and will be on hand to give you valuable advice and guidance on recruitment, apprenticeships and upskilling your staff. We will also be demonstrating all our software solutions – do come and visit us – you’ll find us on stand C12.
We celebrate International Talk Like A Pirate Day on the 19th – and all hands are on deck, for this is our theme of the month. As well as looking at the origins of this unusual day, we’ve got a treasure hunt activity and a parrot craft for the children that will inspire you to “parley like a pirate”.
Another celebration is in order on 13th September – for Roald Dahl Day! We’ve got some great ideas for the children to have fun with; as well as a competition to win some fantastic Roald Dahl books and matching finger puppets which you can use to make storytime fun and interactive!
