• Your child’s learning journey will be recorded using Tapestry, our online learning journal, which you will be able to access regularly.

• You are welcome to speak with any member of staf before or after sessions.

FAQs Do I need to let you know who is collecting my child?

- Yes! If it is not someone named on the admissions forms, you must let a member of staf know. If your plans change during the day, please contact the school office, who will inform the teacher.

What happens at lunchtime?

- Your child’s choice of meal will be ordered online by yourself. All school meals are cooked onsite. Your child will eat their school dinner or packed lunch in the school hall. The nursery staf supervise and support children to eat their meals independently.

What happens if my child has a toileting accident?

- Toileting accidents do happen and as EYFS practitioners we expect that there may be a few. We request that you bring in a spare change of clothes. If this becomes a persistent concern, your child’s teacher will speak to you about how we can work together to overcome this.

Please do not hesitate to contact the school office if you have any further questions.
