Harvard Park Pre- School LTD.
Notes from the management team: We would like to start by addressing the weather. It is still very chilly in the early morning so you must provide all children with a warm coat. It is too early for summer dresses and shorts with no coats! ALL children in must have the appropriate clothing for the weather. We would officially like to welcome Hibo to our team, she will be introducing herself over the next couple of weeks while she gets to know the children and routine. A few little notes for the month of May: •
Our Photographer, Karen will be back in at the end of May. She will be at Pre-school on Tuesday 17th May from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm. If Tuesday is not one of your scheduled sessions, please book in with us at a time that suits everyone. If you would like to have sibling shots, please speak to us so again we can book in a time that suits us all. Karen takes lovely portraits of the children which are ideal for gifts or special memories. We will send out reminders closer to the time.

Reminders:
All fee’s: Remember these need to be paid at the beginning of a half term - always in advance never in arrears. Late fee’s will be applied where necessary - if you receive a message from us please respond.
Completing your set homework: We have set homework which runs for a period of 6 weeks to co-inside with your children’s targets at pre-school. Please try your best to follow through with it as it helps them to move forward in their development and understanding of the world.
Snacks in bags or packed lunches: Children should not be coming into the setting with snacks in their bags or packed lunches unless you have arranged this with the manager. Please remember that Hazelnut spread such as Nutella contain nuts so we cannot accept any snack or lunches which contain this!
Under no circumstances are children allowed sweets or chewing gum when entering the building. Healthy Breakfasts are encouraged as much as possible.
Sun-cream: Where possible, please apply sun cream before coming to the nursery if you are part time. If you are full time, please provide us with a bottle of sun-cream so we can top it up when the weather gets nice. We will label it with your child’s name so there is no confusion as to whose bottle is whose. Please be aware of the ingredients in sun-cream and avoid any with almond oil in - we have children and staff with air-born nut allergies!
