COVID-19 Update

30/3/2020

​Morning,


I hope everyone is keeping safe and well in your household?
Unfortunately, I have no further news as to when pre-school will be able to re-open as yet. All staff have been furloughed for the foreseeable future and are unable to do any work for pre-school during this time. As you can imagine, we are all finding it very difficult to switch off! 
I will continue to post the weekly activities on Tapestry during term time but please do not feel pressured to do these. Enjoy the time you have at home with your little ones; they are learning all the time as you play together.

I have received confirmation from Suffolk County Council that funding for next term (Summer 2020) will still be paid; however this does mean I will need you to confirm the days you would like your child to attend once we re-open.
You can do this by replying to this email.

Could I also remind you to pay all invoices in full by Thursday 2nd April to avoid the late payment fee. I will deduct the session fee for closure days from your next invoice where applicable.

Thank you in advance for your prompt reply.

Stay Safe!

Good Morning,

​We have now been given more information on the announcement to close schools and nurseries from Friday 20th March.

The Government have made it clear in their statement that children should be kept at home for their own safety. 
We therefore regret to inform you we have had to make the decision to follow this Government guidance and close our pre-school until further notice.
We are currently contacting other Early Years Providers to see what provisions are in place for families listed as "Key Workers" and will keep you informed as and when we have any further information.
Full details of the closures can be found on the link below.

If you have any further queries or feel you may need assistance with childcare, please email us as soon as possible.

We like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the lovely comments we have received and hope to see you all very soon.

Stay Safe!

Shelley & team x

We are sure you are all aware of the Government's decision to close schools & nurseries indefinitely from Friday 20th March with the exception of children with parents who are "Key Workers". We are still awaiting a definition from the Government of "Key Workers" and the expectations for us as a setting.
​At this point in time we are asking all parents who are choosing to self isolate to inform us by email to allow us to staff accordingly.
Thank you for your patience in these very testing times, staff will be providing childcare until we are forced not to!
We will keep you updated by email as soon as we receive clearer information.
Kind Regards
​Shelley and my amazing team xx
