As the heat warning has now progressed to a Red Alert for our area and knowing that some local schools have now reduced to half days for tomorrow, Wed and Thurs please read below:
- If you choose not to send your child to Preschool this week during the heatwave please ensure that you let us know. We shall follow up and contact if we do not hear from families and your child is not at Preschool.
- If you would like your child to only do half day sessions, absolutely no problem at all (just let us know).
- Tiny Tekkers is cancelled for this week.
- Children are having minimal time outside (in the mornings and keeping in the shade). We have large industrial fans in place inside which are helping to keep the heat down as much as we can in the Preschool room.
- We are ensuring children are drinking water regularly and we have ice pops in the afternoon.
Wednesday: We are meeting at the Playground at 9am for our Fire Service visit (not normal drop off at Preschool that morning). If you want your child to take part in this and then go home, absolutely no problem at all.
If we feel a child is struggling with the heat when with us we shall contact parents/carers to discuss what you would like to do.
If we feel that is no longer suitable to remain open, despite our best efforts, we shall close early on the next 3 days to reduce impact of the heat on our children and staff and to maintain everyone's health and wellbeing.
Thank you for your support with this matter,
Vix.
