NEWSLETTER –Summer 1 half term 2015
Dear parents,
We would like to say a big welcome to all our new parents and children, and welcome back to all our existing parents and children. We hope that everyone had a good Easter break.
Clothing
As we run the school in line with the Foundation Phase Curriculum we offer the children the opportunity to play outside in all weather. As the weather starts to change could you please ensure that your child comes into school with the appropriate items such as hats and sun cream. We can apply sun cream as long as it’s their own and in a clearly labelled bottle. Please could you ensure that all of their belongings are labelled to avoid any confusion and worry. Thank you.
Thank you
We would like to say a massive thank you to Helen and Nick (Lilia’s Parents) for their extremely kind gift. They so kindly bought us gift vouchers. The vouchers will be used to purchase outdoor toys and equipment for the children to enjoy. Thank you so much, it was extremely kind and gratefully received.
