Thank you for supporting Children In Need when we raised £172. Thank you also for your gifts at Harvest time, your donations for the children’s stall at the church fair and your support at the Toy Service. We have been working on setting up a website for the pre-school and hope to have it up and running this term. During the Spring term we will be reviewing the following policies:Equipment & Resources Health & Safety Settling in Confidentiality The policies are always available in a folder on the top table in the corridor. A FEW REMINDERS: Please do not park on the yellow zigzag lines in St Mary’s Avenue OR in the busy parking bay outside the hall (this is for Pre-school and Church staff only). EVERY TIME YOU PARK THERE IT ENDANGERS A CHILD’S LIFE. Velcro shoes or plimsoles – no laces, marked with the children’s names, to be worn please. Illness. If your child has been sick or suffered from diarrhoea or a temperature, DO NOT send them to pre-school for 48 hours. Birthdays. Should your child wish to bring in something to celebrate their birthday we ask that you send in biscuits or small cakes, but please NOT SWEETS as this causes a lot of problems. Notice Board. Please read the notices on the notice board regularly, and check the table at the top of the corridor. Arrival times. Please would you make every effort to arrive on time, both at arrival and pick-up time. We like to get the door locked quickly when the children arrive and take the register, this is for your children’s safety. Thank you. We wish you all a joyous and peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year. With best wishes Pat and the staff
