The Old Rectory Kindergarten - Burslem

BREAKING NEWS
We have finally used up the last of the apples from our garden!
We thought this moment would never come as its been the biggest ever harvest this year 😂

Tomorrow will be our 19th Anniversary of opening The Old Rectory Kindergarten!
We have been truly privileged to be at the heart of the Burslem, Tunstall and Cobridge community for so long.
We continue to pride ourselves on catering for those parents who prioritise the wellbeing of their child and seek a nurturing and bespoke learning environment.
We are excited to spend the day celebrating with our children and families tomorrow.

This is why we do it...

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Praise doesn't come higher than this!
Thank you to all the parents that are sending our team the most wonderful gifts. However, it's a difficult time for many people with the current economic climate. So we wanted to let you know that a homemade card or a glowing review mean just as much to our team. Knowing that we helped to get your children off to a great start and that your children have loved their time with us is the best gift we can receive. ✨

And thank you to Chester and family for all the wonderful memories 💕 Good luck with your next big adventure of school! This is such a bittersweet time of year for us!

These beautiful biscuits melted our hearts 💕 Thank you so much to Oscar and family. We wish you all the best as you take your first steps on your next big adventure - school!

Well done Mandles! Thank you for ensuring we achieved a 5 star hygiene rating again.
Our children rate your food as 5 star everyday but it's nice to know the Food Standards Agency feel the same too 🍲😊

🌿 Tapestry Notifications 🌿

We don't want you to miss out on important updates, memos and documents.

Ensure you have downloaded the Tapestry app and adjusted the settings so that you receive immediate notifications for any new updates on your child's account.

If you would like some help with adjusting your notification settings within the app then just let us know and we will email you with a simple step by step guide.

*POTENTIAL NEW PARENTS*
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Due to the current demand for places in our beautiful baby room we are introducing a waiting list for new starters.
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
We advise potential new parents to enquire about a place as early as possible to avoid disappointment. Registration will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Parents that have applied for a place on our waiting list will be contacted when a place becomes available and then invited to bring their baby for their settling in visits.

It is that time of year when some of our children are leaving us to progress on to school. So now is a great time to remind parents that they can download their child’s online journal of their time with us.
In the past we have had children leave and parents not coming to collect their child’s journal. We appreciate that this is a busy time of year for many parents and collecting these journals may not be their top priority. However, these journals are full of photos and memories to treasure and we want to encourage parents to access their child’s journal.
Therefore, our management team have made it even easier for parents to access a PDF download of the journal without even having to make time to come to the setting to collect it. Just pop us an email and we can send you a secure link to download the journal.
We have loved making all these memories with your little ones and we are so excited to see them take their next steps on their adventure through life!

Today we had our annual celebration for those children who are progressing onto school next term. A lovely day that makes all the preparation worth it. 🌼🐝🐛🦋🌺🐌🐞🌸
