January edition of Learning Ladder Nurseries JLT News

“All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don’t hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don’t take things that aren’t yours. Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat…” –Robert Fulghum.

Dear Parents, welcome to the January edition of LLN News.

January edition of LLN News

Robert Fulghum’s words have inspired me for a long time and now more than ever, they ring true and bring a smile. Once again, I wish to warmly welcome all the new children, their families and new members of staff to the nursery. I would like you to please join me in welcoming Miss Salam Zabalawi, our Nursery Manager who joined us after a long search for the right candidate for our setting through a tough year of continuous bumps. Miss Salam is a qualified, experienced and KHDA approved leader in Early Childhood Education and her boundless energy has inspired all of us at the setting. I personally wish her every success at Learning Ladder Nursery.

 

January always is a busy time at Learning Ladder, but this year has been busier than any, understandably. We have worked very hard to keep closer communication with everyone, often communicating long after work hours and on weekends in order to keep everyone safe when someone has reported any suspected signs of illness. I thank you all for being so careful and understanding.

We saw children dressed in beautiful traditional clothes from their home countries on international day. We loved seeing their flag art and even posters they made at home and shared with us.


Diwali celebration at Learning Ladder Nurseries JLT

At Learning Ladder Nurseries in JLT, we show respect for diversity by celebrating the differences. We encourage families to participate in cultural activities and programs, it strengthens children’s self-identity and promotes an inclusive practice in the nursery. Cultural diversity in our setting provides a range of opportunities for children and families to celebrate differences. It’s one aspect of diversity, which also embraces differences in gender, disabilities, age, social, and economic backgrounds.
