PEEP Group – A letter from Timea and Miss Forbes :-)
Dear Parents,
My name is Timea (pronounced Tim-may) and I am Nora’s mum.
I have joined some groups like PEEP back home in Hungary. My experience has shown me we can benefit from these children & parent learning programmes a lot!
- Parents can meet and talk to each other. They can talk about their children, themselves and share parenting stories and guidance.
- Children are relaxed if you are with them during the lessons.
- Children will learn during playing and that you can do this at home as well.
- Parents can be the witness of their children’s progress.
- Carrying on tasks together at school and at home can make children more secure – emotionally and in their learning.
- Presence of parents will give confidence to children.
- The joy of playing and learning together is an abiding memory for the parents and the children.
- We can build a team.
We would be very happy to meet you at the PEEP lessons!
It will also help me learn more English! What about you?
From Timea and Nora!
