Our setting recognises parents as the first and most important educators of their children. We provide parents with up to date information which is accessible to them on our notice board, via our pre-school newsletter, on our website and inside: on our notice boards and parents table in the main entrance hall.
We appreciate feedback - parents are welcome to write any comments or suggestions in our Comment Book or on our parents information blackboard or speak to us directly when they visit our preschool. The manager and staff members are always available to talk to parents, carers and childminders at all times and there is also an office available for more confidential conversations.
We welcome parents to participate in our setting - come and read children a story, help to prepare your favourite recipe, share any special celebrations or traditions, or just simply come and join in our daily child and adult lead activities.

The elections take place at our Annual General Meeting. The committee make up the registered person with Ofsted and are responsible for :
We provide children with lots of opportunities to enjoy literacy : we read books at the end of each session, have a good selection of theme focused books and a snuggly sofa available to children during the session, and we extend their joy of the written word into re-enacting, craft activities, imaginative play, etc...
Each child is encouraged to borrow a book to take home and share with their family. We offer library bags and small notepads, which can be used to exchange observations with families.
