Message from the Governors

Dear Parents

I am pleased to inform you that Fiona Godfrey will be joining Kate Greenaway as the new Head of the Nursery School and Children’s Centre. She is highly qualified and experienced and is looking forward to getting to know everyone at Kate Greenaway.
Fiona is currently the Headteacher at Ambler Children’s Centre where she has been the Head for nearly four years. Prior to that she was the Deputy Head at Willow Children’s Centre and spent nearly 5 years as the Head of Foundation Stage at North Haringey Infant School.
Jan and Michele have been doing an excellent job in the absence of a head and will continue to do so until Fiona’s start date, which is still to be confirmed but is likely to be later in the Autumn.

Best wishes
Andrea Ledward
Acting Chair of Governors


Friday June 11th is National Book Start Day!

Kate Greenaway and Bemerton Children’s Centres are joining together to offer a free fun morning to celebrate in Barnard Park from 10am on Friday, open to all local families with children under five. This year’s theme is The Seaside so we’ll be sharing seaside stories and playing in the sand and water, in between bouncing on the bouncy castle of course!
Please do come and join us.
If your child is 18months-3 and you think you haven’t had your book start pack yet come along with your red book to collect it.

Friday 11th June
The nursery is going seaside crazy on Friday to celebrate Book Start Day.
We’ll have loads of activities to do with the sea like fishing games, looking at shells through the microscope, loads of sand and water activities, songs and rhymes and even a healthy version of fish and chips for lunch.
Bring your red book if you haven’t received your 18-36mth book start pack.
See overleaf for a seaside song to sing at home and nursery.
