Dear Parents / Carers
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Testing for COVID – If your child goes for a COVID test, please don’t forget to let us know. We need to report any cases to our Early Years Team for Track & Trace purposes and where required, we will notify parents, carers and staff if they need to self-isolate. This is really important to ensure that we can keep each other, our families and our staff safe. Thank you.

Playhouse Activities This Week – This week has been very exciting with the snow, we had great fun: we had snow ball fights, we created a fantastic snowman .. it was a great team effort and snow angels. Rachel threw a fantastic snowball that landed down Lucy’s back which the children thought was very funny. We planted our cress and we have been watching it grow over the week. We painted our portraits, looking at how special, unique, and fabulous we all are. The children have loved our new sensory stepping-stones and enjoyed walking over them, they have different textures.
