Key universal services to access
Dentist

Taking your under-5 to an NHS dentist ensures their dental development is monitored early, prevents painful and costly tooth decay, and helps them get comfortable with the clinic environment. Best of all, NHS dental care is completely free for all children under 18

You can find your nearest NHS dentist by searching on

Find a dentist - NHS Find a dentist near you on the NHS website for routine and urgent dental care. Check opening times, contact details and facilities.

Key Universal services to access
Opticians- Eye health
Taking your under-5 to an optician is essential because up to 20% of young children have undetected sight conditions. Because children don't know what "normal" vision looks like, they won't complain. Regular tests catch conditions like lazy eye (amblyopia) or squints early while they are highly treatable.

Opticians and sight tests Find an opticians and see if you are entitled to free NHS eye tests.

Sports day/ last day of term 17th of July
As we have done the last two years sports day will take place inside, to accommodate all parents/ carers & children comfortably we will split the children into two sessions based on their age.

The children will take part in the sports day races they have practiced and afterwards there will be an opportunity to have refreshments, sit with staff and celebrate the children’s achievements of the last year.

All children must have a parent/ carer in attendance– there is no other sessions running on this day or any costs.

Session 1- Those not starting Reception in September will be from 09:15am - 10:30am
Session 2- Those starting Reception in September will be from 10:45am- 12:15pm

IMPORTANT!!!
Can I remind all parents that drive, you must drive slowly on the single track road and especially in our car park!!!!. We have had two very close calls today where accidents between two vehicles and pedestrians could have resulted in injuries.
Please remember,
1- The road is narrow and only wide enough for one car and there are overhanging branches from the trees which can impact your ability to see what could be ahead of you.
2- Pedestrians also use the road, car park and paths nearby.
The safety of everyone travelling to and from Pre-School is our priority.

PLEASE SHARE- We have a wonderful job opportunity to join our Little Fishes team/ family- please see the details below and get in contact by email or phone for further information.
