Nursery News Letter March 2021
Message from Mrs Cryan and Mrs Sally Appadu Mrs Mandy Cryan Mrs Sally Appadu We wish a warm welcome back to more of our families this week, it's so good to see you and we have missed you all! This week our living eggs are arriving and we will be watching them as they hatch out and grow into chicks. We will be looking after them at Nursery for a fortnight and the children will gain so many valuable learning opportunities from having them here at Nursery. Ask your child about them over the next 2 weeks and share with us what they say!

Focus Children– Parent Meetings
Each week we complete observations on children in the nursery and we are now
starting to have meetings with parents over the phone. This is so we can share what your child has been learning and how much progress they have made. Your child’s Key Worker will arrange this meeting at a convenient time with you from now until the end of this academic year. This is also an opportunity for you to share some information about your home life with us. We look forward to having these meetings with you!

Coronavirus

showing symptoms of Coronavirus;
A new continuous cough,

you will be advised to keep your child at home for 10 days or take your child for a

Wearing Masks
We need parents to wear masks (unless exempt) when they;
- Bring and collect their child and are waiting outside
- Come to reception to pay dinner money or school fund
- Come and chat to Mrs Sally Appadu.
This is so that we can keep
everyone safe
Allergies
Please do not bring in snacks with your child as they come into nursery. We are still finding snacks, nuts and sweets in children’s bags and sometimes in their coat pockets. We are a nut free school and have children who attend with various allergies.
This is very important
