January 2015 Newsletter

Welcome

We would like to welcome all of our new children and parents to Rothley Park Kindergarten.

We hope you all have / had a very Merry Christmas and wish you happiness for 2015.

Free Early Education Entitlement

FEEE is available to all children the term following their third birthday, for a minimum of 38 week’s per year. This is claimed by the setting and throughout term time only. Each term can vary between 11 and 15 weeks. The funding hours will be shown on your invoice each month. Please do not hesitate to see us in the office if you have any queries regarding your child’s funding.

Winter Clothing

As the weather is now getting cold and wet could you please bring in some indoor and outdoor shoes i.e. wellingtons and slippers. Also can you bring a warm coat, gloves and a hat so we can keep all the children wrapped up when we go outside to play. Could you please make sure that all these items are labelled with your child’s full name.

Health & Safety

Please can you provide your child with nappies, wipes, creams, Calpol or Nurofen when required. We do not have any spares and we are finding this difficult to change your child accordingly without any of their own products. This is for your child’s personal needs to be met. Thank you for your co operation.

Lateness

We have an increasing amount of parents arriving late to collect their children, can we please ensure you collect your child promptly as, for insurance purposes, we can only remain open until 6.00pm. If this not possible, please ensure you arrange alternative collection arrangements. If this continues there will be a lateness charge added to your account. Thank you.

Transition to the Pre School Bungalow

We have some exciting news. Our additional bungalow pre-school will be re-opening on Monday 5th January 2015. Therefore all relevant children will be moving from that date. The children have already been visiting their new rooms and are excited to be moving. Please do not hesitate to arrange a viewing of the pre-school with the nursery practitioners in the office.
