Please ensure that you are on time when dropping off and collecting from Nursery
sessions. Being on time means the children get into the best routine from the very
beginning of each session and don’t miss any group and carpet time.
The session times are:
AM: 9.00 - 12.00
PM: 12.00 - 3.00
We are currently planning our Christmas events which are our Nativity Play and our Christmas Carols. WE ARE EXTREMELY EXCITED TO PREPARE FOR OUR CHRISTMAS EVENTS!

We are really enjoying using Tapestry in Nursery and have lots of evidence of the children’s fantastic learning! Your child will have at least 1 new observation each week, so do log in so you can see what they have been busy doing at Nursery. If you are not yet signed up, please contact Bhaggya ASAP.
Please use Tapestry to share photos of special events or activities your child has enjoyed outside of school. We can use these to talk to your child about their home life and things they enjoy. They love to share their lives with us!
Home learning - Each Friday we will share a ‘home learning’ post on Tapestry.
This will include a number and sound for the upcoming week
that you can practise with your child, and a suggested nursery rhyme.
During snack time, all children are provided with a healthy snack and a choice of either milk or water to drink (snacks from home are not necessary)
If you child is staying for lunch time, ensure that they have been provided
with a packed lunch.
Please remember to check that all items your child brings into Nursery are named, so that we can make sure items return to the correct child. As you can imagine, the children muddle up their things quite easily,
so we regularly do have to check names!
This includes jumpers and cardigans, coats, bags, drinks bottles and wellies.
DUE TO INCREASED COSTS OF RUNNING OUR PRE-SCHOOL WE ARE INCREASING OUR HOURLY RATE TO £7.00
(WE ARE STLL THE CHEAPEST NURSERY AROUND TOWN)
WE DO HOPE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR THIS INCREASE.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS THIS, PLEASE CONTACT BHAGGYA VIA THE SCHOOL MOBILE PHONE.
