Welcome to Nursery

Nursery Staff

 

Dear Parents and Children,
 
Welcome to Nursery. We are really looking forward to meeting you all in September. Here are some notes to help you to organize the start of the school year.

The school day starts at 8.45 and children should be accompanied downstairs to their classrooms or the E.C garden. There is a different teacher on duty every morning; the list will be posted on the door at the start of the corridor.

The children can be picked up at the end of the day from 15.30 from their classroom. Please be punctual!
 
Please fill out the Nursery Questionaire and either email it back to us or bring it in to school. (MicrosoftWord version - PDF version)
 
For the start of the school year the children will need:
  1. An art smock or big old shirt/t-shirt for art lessons and messy activities.
  2. A bag with a COMPLETE change of clothes. Please make sure that each item is clearly labeled. You can find good easy to apply labels at www.easy2name.com
  3. A lunch box or small rucksack with your child's name clearly written on it.
It is school policy for Nursery children to sleep in the afternoon. As most children really benefit from this restful moment we ask that you do not let your child get out of the habit of a quiet nap over the summer. Children will require sheets and a large pillowcase to store the sheets in. As the weather gets cooler they may need a blanket. The sheets will be sent home every Friday to be washed. If your child is in the habit of sleeping with a small soft toy or dummy [pacifier] he/she may bring it for naptime, however we do not allow toys in school as this does cause upset and tears if they are lost.

These are just a few general notes; we will be holding a brief meeting for parents only on Friday 4th September at 10 0'clock to talk about your child's transition into Nursery. This is an informal meeting with your child's teacher, a time to express your concerns and ask any questions before your child starts school on Wednesday 9th September. Please feel welcome to visit the Nursery class with your child on Monday 7th September between 10.00-11.30. This is purely to let your child become acquainted with the new environment.

 
Have a lovely summer and see you in September!
