A Great Turn Out!



The first 'ESOL Next Step' session was a great success. We had a great turnout of parents who arrived at Manford after dropping off their children either to their child's class or to the crèche provided by the school.

The parents all made each other cups of tea/coffee and ate a biscuit, before sitting down and having a nice morning chat.

The session kicked off with Miss Man standing at the front of the classroom and introducing her and others to the parents. Handouts and folders were distributed to all the parents by Linda Curtis. A brief summary of the course outline was given and then it was all work from then on.

All the parents watched Miss Man attentively and paid close attention to what was being taught.



In this session, the parents were introduced to phonics and how to use this to support their children with reading. They thoroughly enjoyed singing the songs.





A big thank you to Linda Curtis for all her help with getting everything organised the day before and all the parents who attended. We are looking forward to seeing you all again next week.
