Munchies at 3rd Hampton

✨ Another fun-filled afternoon at Munchies! ✨

The children got creative with colourful paper chains and sticker art, producing some fantastic butterflies, bees, flowers, and patterns. We love seeing their imaginations shine and their confidence grow through crafts and creativity! 🌸🐝🎨

🌊💙 Save Our Oceans Day 💙🌊

Today we are celebrating Save Our Oceans Day and learning how we can all help protect our beautiful seas and the amazing creatures that live in them! 🐠🐢🐳

💡 Here are some ideas the children gave us today to help save our oceans:

🗑️ Put rubbish in the bin and help pick up litter when you see it.
♻️ Recycle plastic, paper, and cans whenever possible.
🚰 Use a reusable water bottle instead of single-use plastic bottles.
🛍️ Take reusable shopping bags when you go shopping.
🐢 Be kind to wildlife and never leave litter behind at the beach or park.
💧 Turn off taps when brushing your teeth to help save water.

Every small action makes a BIG difference! Together, we can help keep our oceans clean, healthy, and full of life for future generations. 🌎💙

Parents and Carers - An opportunity to help us understand your childcare needs and how we can develop the local childcare sector to meet them

Every year councils have to report on childcare in their area to ensure they are meeting the needs of families and their children. In Kingston and Richmond the Childcare Sufficiency Assessment report is produced by Achieving for Children, who provide children’s services for Kingston and Richmond councils.

To build a clear picture of childcare (for both early years and School age children) across our area, and how well it meets the needs of local families, we are asking parents and carers who either currently use childcare or need to use childcare to complete our Parents and Family Childcare Survey - this survey is anonymous.

Your feedback will help us understand what is working well, identify any gaps and inform how we can better support families and develop local childcare provision.
Parents and carers: please spend time completing this annual survey and share your views and childcare needs - your contribution is extremely valuable and we hope to receive a wide range of responses representing the needs of all families.

The survey outcomes will be included in our annual Childcare Sufficiency Assessments which are published each Autumn and also shared with the Department of Education. You can view our last year's report here: https://kr.afcinfo.org.uk/pages/community-information/information-and-advice/family-information-service-and-childcare-search/childcare-sufficiency-assessment-csa
