As you may be aware the Government have announced that all schools and Early Years settings must shut after Friday the 20th March until further notice. It is hoped that by taking this drastic action now, the Corona Virus COVID 19 can be contained across the UK. However, I realise that for many of our children and families who rely on our nursery for childcare support, the closure of our preschool will prove to be very difficult time for you all.
I would like to reassure you that we will reopen immediately again once the Government relaxes it position on school and setting closures, and then it will be back to ‘business as usual’. At present we have no idea how long we must close for; we are optimistic that it will be weeks not months! We will use our website to keep families informed of any changes to the opening of our preschool.

me and we can endeavour to support you. Our staff team will be on hand to answer your call and offer advice or help or signpost you to the correct service if we are unable to help.
There is an online company called Twinkl which has some excellent free home learning resources for preschool and school aged children. They have a particularly useful ‘Coronavirus home learning support page’ which you might like to take a look at, as there are activities on the site which would support your child’s learning, whilst they are unable to attend the preschool.
Kind regards
