Nursery Newsletter Spring 1 2018



Term: Spring 1 Date: 02.01.18



Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome back and Happy New Year to you all.
We would like to say a huge thank you for all your good wishes,cards and Christmas gifts .We were really overwhelmed by your kindness.

We are very sad that we have said goodbye to Mrs Shoulders as she takes a break from Mead Nursery to welcome her new addition . We hope she enjoys this time and manages to put her feet up.
We look forward to sharing her news as soon as we hear it.

We are very pleased to welcome Miss Gonsalves to our team.Miss Gonsalves is really excited to work with our Nursery children and will be mostly based in the two year old room.

May we remind you that the closing date for applications for Reception places is the 15th January.
The easiest way to apply is on the Havering Admissions website.
Please ask if you would like some help with this.

During the Winter months please make sure your child attends Nursery with a waterproof jacket each day. Additional hats/scarfs etc may be needed if the weather is cold. We do believe in the children having some outdoor time each day but on particularly bad days we will keep them under the canape.

Please be aware children may finish Nursery slightly messy or slightly damp from playing outside. We believe that children learn a great deal from playing in different weather conditions and please be assured that your children will not be left in soaking wet clothing for the whole session. If you would like to send spare clothes in to keep at Nursery incase of accidents please hand them to one of the Nursery staff in a named bag.
