Term: Autumn 2 Date: 11.12.17
Dear Parents and Carers,
We have a very busy last few weeks left before Christmas. Below are some important dates you need to remember.
Friday 15th December- Christmas Jumper Day- Children can wear a Christmas jumper instead of their green jumper. The rest of their clothes should be school uniform.
We will also be having our class Christmas party this day. Children will have party food and play party games with their friends to celebrate an excellent first term in Nursery.
Tuesday 19th December- Nursery Christmas concert- We are sorry for the change of date again! Please send all children to school at 8.30/8.45am even if they normally attend the afternoon session. The concert will begin at 10.00am and there will be no afternoon session on this day.
We will be announcing the winners of our Christmas hamper after the concert. Please bring in any luxury donations ASAP so we can sort out prizes. Tickets are on sale now, £1 a strip. All money raised goes towards funds for the Nursery.
Wednesday 20th December- Last day of term.
Tuesday 2nd January- Back to school.
Routines/Messages
Mrs Shoulders last day will be on Wednesday 20th December as she leaves for maternity leave. When we return to school in January Miss Byrne will be teaching in our 3 year old room with Miss Allen. Mrs Voller will remain in our 2 year old room with a new member of staff. All staff and children access both rooms of our Nursery so children will still see and speak to all members of staff they have built relationships with.
Please note that you are not permitted to leave pushchairs on the school grounds whilst your child is at Nursery. Please push them home with you when you leave. At Mead we encourage independence and physical development. Please encourage your child to walk with you to school.
Please also make sure that all your child’s uniform is named. We still have lots of children without names on their jumpers/cardigans. When children take them off staff do not know who they belong to and they are more likely to be lost/misplaced.
We have had alot of children being picked up late from Nursery. Please note our Nursery times below and be on time to pick up your child. Children need to be collected by the times stated below and no later.

Nursery times
Please be aware of our Nursery times. We have different sessions running throughout the day where children start/finish at different times.

Nursery times have been carefully planned for the settling of every child.
