Wednesday and Thursday closure.

Just to let everyone know the setting will be closed to everyone on both Wednesday and Thursday this week due to the red weather warning that has been put in place. We have followed advice from The White Horse Federation, St Marys Primary School and other local schools and preschools too.

We will be open as normal tomorrow (Tuesday) from 8am until 5pm.

We plan to reopen on Friday as usual depending on further advice from St Marys and the White Horse Federation later this week.

Thank you for your understanding and see you tomorrow.......just a random comment that thunderstorm was wild !!

Please ensure your child has a sunhat in setting next week as we have some hot weather predicted.
We will keep the children in the shade as much as we can, we are really lucky to have shaded areas until early afternoon and not forgetting we have the woods too for some cool.
We will apply suncream during the day however please apply suncream to your child each morning prior to their arrival to preschool.
We will have lots of water fun in the heat so feel free to pack your child's swimsuit or plenty of extra tshirts and shorts to enable them to change following wet play.
We don't anticipate any changes to our closing times but do keep an eye on our social media pages and on Tapestry just in case !
Thanks the BGP staff team ♥️
