Penryn welcomes its preschoolers back to the nest

The morning of arrival at the screening station was filled with colourful balloons, slides and funky hats to make the goodbyes from parents and guardians easier as they wished their little ones well.

The Penryn Preschool Team was delighted to welcome back the Kingfisher (two years and up) and Nest (three to five years) classes back to campus on Monday.

The team had returned to campus the previous week to get all classrooms, playgrounds and facilities ready for the fun.

“It was the first time ever attending a school for many of the new preschoolers who joined us. Luckily they had the Penryn family welcoming them with open arms,” said Penryn’s marketing.

The screening of parents, staff and scholars is very strict on campus, and the preschoolers are sanitised upon entering classrooms and heading back home.

“Although we were sad not to be able to welcome our grade R Eaglets back to campus. They have started their year remotely and our grade R teachers are working hard to make sure the video contact, prepared lessons and study packs sent home make the first weeks of grade R as fun as possible.”

The Prep School and College have all moved to remote learning, with study packs being collected and couriered across borders.

“We are excited to be able to welcome them back to campus later on in the year,” concluded the marketing department.
