Reminders:
- Please try to drop off and pick up your child during the slots when the doors are open. When children are dropped off or picked up late it has an impact on the daily running of the nursery. (morning drop off 8.30am-8.45am; pick up 11.25-11.40am) (afternoon drop off 12.25pm-12.12.40pm; pick up3.20pm-3.35pm)
- Snack money is £2 per week. Please pay weekly or pay £16 for the full term.
- Please leave the learning journeys in the trays so that the staff can update the folders regularly.
- We would like to encourage you to help us update your child’s learning journey by adding to the ‘I can’ sheet with achievements and progress from home.
- Please ensure you update your child’s care plan or sign to say there have been no changes.
