Allergies
Please do not send your child into school with drinks, sweets or other food. We have several children who are severely allergic to fish, pulses and eggs etc. Please note we are also a nut free school. Thank you
Bags and Coats
Thank you for bringing in a bag for your child with clean clothes inside. Please note it only needs to contain clean spare clothes every day. Snacks and water bottles do not need to brought into nursery. Your child will have regular access to fresh water, toast and fruit every day. Please remember to label all clothing to avoid any confusion.
Early Help and Family Support
If you need help with accessing food banks, benefits, housing, finances, counselling, parenting courses, English classes or adult education please ask to see Mrs Sally Appadu. She can make an early help referral. There are many agencies that can help families at the moment in Birmingham.
You can also access Family Support by phoning Doddington Children's Centre on 0121 477 6440. You can leave a message with the receptionist and a duty family support worker will phone back. They will phone you back on the same day between 12noon and 4.00pm.
Lillian's
Last year we opened Lillian's. It is a clothes rail which has a variety of children's clothes.
Parents can take up to 3 items of clothing per week and it is completely free. Parents from N1 are also welcome to come to Lillian's. It is located by our photocopier. Ask at Reception if you do not know where to find it.
We have had positive feedback from parents about this resource for the community.
