Arriving at Little Chicks

• Due to the current Covid-19 situation, unfortunately we are not able to allowing parents/carers into the setting for visits or to drop off your little ones.  We are using the side gate which is situated on the car park where a member of staff will welcome you and your children and return them to you later.   The Pre-School will be open from 8.15 am
• Lunch boxes and drinks are brought into the Pre-School room and placed into the fridge.
• When the children enter the Pre-School a member of staff records the time they arrived on the register, all children go and wash their hands before playing.
• We welcome any suggestions on how best we can support your child to be settled.
• Please contact us any time to see how your child is settling in. 
• We will contact you, if your child becomes upset and we are unable to be distracted or calm them.  

Under normal circumstances, we operate an open-door policy all year round – where you do not need to book an appointment – you are welcome to come in at any time. Whether to ask questions, discuss the individual needs of your child or to join in with a session.  But like a lot of things with Covid-19 this has had to stop, however we welcome phone calls and emails so please keep in touch.  

Parent Partnership

Starting pre-school is a big step for children and their families, at Little Chicks Pre-School we pride ourselves on the partnership we have built up with our parents. We share your child’s learning experiences and development at regular termly parent meetings.

We have found these meetings give us the opportunity to…

• talk and get to know each other
• share advise and strategies
• helps us to ensure each child’s individual needs are met

Illness

Please do not bring your child to Little Chicks Pre-School if they are ill as germs spread quickly and affect other children as well as the staff. If your child has been prescribed antibiotics to treat an infection, they should remain at home for at least 24 hours (this includes conjunctivitis). 

After sickness and/or diarrhoea, children must NOT return until they are symptom free for at least 48 hours.

Little Chicks Pre-School follows the EYFS curriculum and ensures that each child makes progress in all the areas of learning.
