Drive Carefully

03rd March 2017

Please remember to drive carefully in our car park. It can get very busy at times. The speed limit is 5 miles per hour and we also expect everyone to reverse park. We have had a number of parental complaints about poor and unsafe driving. We will not continue to tolerate this as the health and safety of our children, parents and staff is being put at risk. Thank you.


Parent Helpers

We are always looking for parent helpers. If you would like to come in and tell a story, accompany us on a walk or share some skills, please talk to your room supervisor. You are ALWAYS MORE than welcome.


Tempest Photographer

03rd March 2017

We have booked a photographer from Tempest to come to nursery on 30th and 31st March 2017. This will be an opportunity for your children to have their photographs professionally taken.

More information will be sent home in due course.
