St Peters Flying Start Toddler group

Parents and carers are advised that there will be school closures in North Ayrshire on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week (26-28 of September) due to industrial action.

All North Ayrshire schools will be CLOSED to primary and secondary aged pupils on all three days.

Early Years service provision will also be significantly affected on these dates. All early years classes and early years centres will be closed with the exception of Springvale Early Years Centre, which will operate normally as a standalone facility.

On the days of strike action, where pupils are affected by school closures, packed lunches will be provided to any affected pupils entitled to a free school meal. Children and/or parents affected by school closures are encouraged to go to their own school (or nearest school) on strike days between 11am and 1pm where they can collect a packed lunch.

If there are any changes to these arrangements parents and carers will be informed.

Join us for fun in the forest at Eglinton Park.

Sensory Play for babies 0-18 months. New and exciting ways to engage with your baby to encourage their development. Booking essential. Call the branch to book.
