Important reminder: arrival times for children in the morning
At Kate Greenaway we have a flexible dropping-off system for all children. This is planned to help parents and staff settle children in, and also to help parents who have older children in school – we know you can’t be in two places at the same time!

But please remember that all children with morning places need to be in nursery by 9.30am. The reason for this, is that we want all the children to be able to take part in the day’s activities, and if children arrive throughout the morning the group becomes unsettled. It is also difficult for children who arrive later, as often the others are already formed in groups and busy.

If your child has a medical appointment or another reason to be late, we understand of course.

But otherwise please help the smooth running of Kate Greenaway by making sure that your child arrives by 9.30am at the very latest. This includes all children – babies, toddlers, 3 and 4 year olds, children with termtime places and children with extended day/year places.

Free theatre production for 2 to 5 year olds
Lewis Carroll Library on Copenhagen Street are hosting the Court Theatre Training Company on Friday 29th January.

They are producing short plays for 2 to 5 year olds on Myths and Fairytales – Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood and more…

It’s free for any parent to come along with their child, starting at 10am. If you would like to take your own child, then please let your key person know during the week (by Wednesday at the latest) – thanks.

We will also take a small group over from Kate Greenaway: if you would like to help us with this, then please let Michele know.
