Price increase
As of April, due to the national minimum wage increase we will need to increase our hourly rate, this has not yet been decided but we will inform you in February of the increase. This is something we don’t really want to do but having not ever increased our rate and the current expenses, raise in pay and utilities we have no option but to increase. We would really appreciate prompt payment of your bills, we still have some outstanding accounts and as of this month charges will be applied. Lunches will now be invoiced in order to make it easier for admin.
The Nursery has lots planned for the year ahead, including sports day, Cream tea, Easter Service and a Party to celebrate the Queen’s platinum Jubilee.

Home Learning
Please check Famly for your Home learning tasks, these are not mandatory to do but often helpful to encourage your child to discuss what they have been doing at Nursery and extending their learning.
Uniform
We still have some uniform available if parents would like to Purchase, Please, see Rebecca in the office.
Again, this is not mandatory.
Drop off & Collection Times
Can we kindly ask parents to make sure they are dropping off and collecting at the right times that they have booked. There are quite a few children arriving 15/20 Minutes earlier than their time and we don’t have the correct staff ratios to allow this.
When you subscribe to the blog, we will send you an e-mail when there are new updates on the site so you wouldn't miss them.
