Lunchboxes

Just a reminder that we have children who have nut allergies at Preschool, therefore it is very important that the children have no nut products in their lunches please.

We also cannot have sweets at Preschool, Ofsted requirements state that settings should be encouraging healthy eating and good oral health, so we would not be meeting those standards if we allow the children to have sugary sweets at lunchtime. Many thanks for your continued support with this.

Preschool Committee

Our current Committee are making plans to stand down in September, we now only have one current Parent on our Committee, and this means we are not meeting the requirements of the governing documents for the setting.

The reality is, without a Committee the Preschool will close, so we are appealing to all our Parents who will be with us in September to consider joining. As a general Committee member, you would be invited to attend one or two meetings a term (usually via Zoom) to discuss fundraising and other Preschool business. There are roles with more depth, such as Chairperson or Treasurer, these would be great roles to add to your CV if you are interested in developing your knowledge and experience.

If you would be interested in joining the Committee or would like more information, please email committee325@outlook.com
