Nursery News Letter April 2021
Message from Mrs Cryan and Mrs Appadu We wish a warm welcome back to our families! The children have returned after the Easter Holidays so well. Some of our children have moved up to our 3-4 year old provision and they have done so with such confidence and independence, we are very impressed! Next week we have a new arrival of some more living eggs. Be prepared to be very excited as we watch more eggs hatch and turn into chicks before our very eyes.

Picking up children– 3– 4 year olds
If you are in a hurry to pick up your child please note that we have an early pick up time at 2.25pm (please arrive on time as story time follows this)
Please could we ask that you are patient with teaching staff as they bring your child out to you. There is a bit of a wait
sometimes but the early pick up time is an option for you.
If you would like to speak about this further then please come and see Mrs Sally Appadu
Thank you for your continued
support.

Family Support
If you need help with benefits, housing, finances, counselling, parenting courses, English classes or adult education please see Isma at Reception and make an
appointment to see Mrs Sally Appadu. She can have a chat with you and make
referrals to family support.
You can also access family support by phoning Doddington Green Children’s Centre on 0121 477 6440
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.
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.
