Dear parents, carers and Robins,
We hope all Mums have a happy Mother's Day on Sunday! Next week are our parents meetings so we look forward to seeing you. If you haven't already booked a slot there are still some free so please log onto Scopay or speak to the school office if you are having problems accessing it.
We will be doing forest school every Thursday afternoon so if your child is in for this session please dress them in old clothes, bring wellies in a named bag and a suitable coat or all in one suit for the weather. It has been particularly muddy this week so waterproof trousers and an old coat are a good idea!
If you have any questions or concerns please do ask any member of the Nursery team at drop off or pick up or contact the school office and we will get back to you.
Thank you for your support.
