Polite Message for all parents and carers
As COVID-19 restrictions are set to ease, Rothley Park Kindergarten must take a careful and a balanced decision regarding keeping everyone safe. Therefore, we are asking you continue to wear your face covering when dropping off and collecting your child/children to and from the nursery.
Our decision is based on the underlying health conditions of some of our children attending the nursery, including some who also live with vulnerable family members. We thank you for your continuing support.
We would like to welcome all our new parents and children to Rothley Park Kindergarten
