Safety

The premises and equipment used at pre-school are inspected regularly for safety by the local social services department.  Safety for the children is of paramount concern to all involved in our pre-school.  The equipment used has been carefully assessed and chosen to be age/ stage appropriate for the children.

Illness

We would ask that you notify the pre-school staff if your child is to miss a session due to illness.

We do ask that you do not send your child to pre-school with an infectious disease. Also if your child has had sickness and/ or diarrhoea please keep them at home for 48 hours after it has stopped, in an attempt to stop the sickness spreading.

Our full health & hygiene policy is available for you to see in pre-school at any time.

Home-made food

It is now a requirement under Health and Safety that we join the Food Standards Agency. Sadly this means that we are no longer able to accept any home-made cakes, biscuits or any other food for the children's snack time or parties. However, you may bring in unopened shop bought food for your child to share with their friends eg. crackers, breads, fruit and vegetables. We will also continue to accept shop bought birthday cakes for your child.
 

If you have any comments, please speak to Margaret Riggs, our designated person for Health and Safety.
