Can parents please remember to bring your child a suitable coat for playing outside.
The weather seems to be constantly changing and we do play outside in all weathers.
Please ensure the coat is labelled with your child's name.
Coats can be left at nursery on your child's peg
Thank you

Please help us minimise the spread of illnesses by keeping your child at home if unwell. If your child has needed calpol/pain relief before coming to nursery please ask yourself whether they are well enough to be in nursery

For coughs and colds the NHS states "Cough and cold remedies for children
Children under 6 should not have over-the-counter cough and cold remedies, including decongestants, unless advised to by a GP or pharmacist"
