Dear Parents
We write to draw your attention to the following ‘housekeeping’ items.
T Shirts and Sun Hats
We would like to advise you that we have Kids Inc t-shirts for sale for ages 3-4 and 5-6. These are priced at £4 each. We also have Kids Inc sun hats for sale for £6 each. Samples of these items are located in the front entrance hall. Please let me know if you would like to place an order.
E-mail Addresses
We are currently liaising with our IT support company to develop a module to enable us to send you invoices, newsletters, photos, etc, by e-mail. Please see myself, Emily, Deborah or Hayley to provide us with an e-mail address, if you have not already done so.
Late Charges
Please may I remind you that morning sessions are from 8.00am to 1.00pm, afternoon sessions are from 1.00pm and 6.00pm and full day sessions are from 7:30am and 6.00pm. There is a late fee of £2 per minute if you are late collecting your child.
Car Park
Please could we request that you all park with consideration for others, and use the car park effectively. Please note that the car park gates are locked at 6:00pm promptly. Please refrain from leaving your cars in the car park after this time.
Clothing and Accessories
We would recommend that you dress your children in ‘nursery clothes’ suitable for nursery activities, as sometimes clothes can become dirty from painting, garden time, etc. Please do not bring your children to nursery, wearing jewellery, hair clips, hair bands, etc, that may get lost or cause harm to a child. We would remind you that our terms and conditions clearly state ‘We cannot be held responsible for loss or damage to children’s property. Every reasonable effort will be made by the staff to ensure the children’s belongings are not lost or damaged.’
Fees
Please could we remind you all that fees are due on the 1st of each month. Please let me know if you require a direct debit form, if this has not already been completed. There is a £25 late charge if fees do not reach our account by the 1st of each month.
Profile Reviews
Please could you book a meeting with your child’s department senior nursery nurse to book a profile meeting, as these are due shortly.
Thank you for your co-operation.
Yours sincerely
Katie Bennett
Nursery Manager
We all had a lovely week celebrating Easter. The infamous Easter Bunny came to visit the nursery all week, and helped pre-school with their Easter Egg Hunt!
During this week, Great Ormond Street Hospital are raising money by having a Peter Pan week. On Friday 30 April 2010, we will be having our own Peter Pan dress up day. Please could all children that attend on that day dress up as Peter Pan. There’s no need to purchase an expensive dressing up outfit, a green t-shirt with green or brown leggings/tights will look great.
As most of you are aware, Isis will shortly be entering motherhood. Isis’ last day at the nursery will be 14 May 2010. We will be holding good bye celebrations for Isis during the week commencing 10 May 2010. This will give all parents the opportunity to say goodbye and wish her all the best.
Please could we remind all parents to ensure that their children’s finger nails must be kept short with no sharp edges. We are having an increasing number of scratches occurring in the nursery due to children’s nails being too long.
Please could we remind all parents to refrain from bringing any food into the nursery. Please help yourself to our chef’s delights in the front entrance hall.
Please could all parents provide the nursery with up to date e-mail addresses. We are currently liaising with our IT services company, who are trying to devise software that will enable us to e-mail you invoices, newsletters, etc, and thus need to update our records in preparation for this.
