Food From Home

When bringing cakes/treats for your child’s birthday into the nursery setting from home can you please ensure there are no traces of nuts within the food and the ingredients must be specified on the packet.

Parent's Evening

On Monday 11th November we are holding a Parent's Evening between 6.15pm – 8.15pm. All parents are welcome. Each room has placed a timetable on the room door with your child’s name and their key worker. Just add your child’s name against the time you wish to attend.

Important Notice To All Drivers

Could we please ask all parents/carers to drive carefully into our car park. We are noticing, on daily basis, that parents/carers are driving too fast. Please be aware, that there are young children arriving and leaving our premises, therefore, we are asking everyone to drive with care. If car parking spaces are not available at the front of our nursery, we have a large car park to the side of our premises. We do not want anyone parking outside our office waiting for a space come to become available at the front. We are very fortunate to have off road parking a short walk to the nursery entrance.

We will be closing for the Christmas break on Christmas Eve at 2:30pm.

We will then be re-opening on Thursday 2nd January 2025 at 8am.

We would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year.
