Week​​ 3​​ of​​ 1st​​ Half​​ Spring​​ Term​​ @​​ Beddington

22nd​​ – 26th​​ January 2024

We have welcomed​​ our new children and families, and the children are settling well!​​ However,​​ when the doorbell rings several​​ times after the door has been closed, it can be upsetting for some​​ children who think their parent is returning.

So, if you are late for the 8.30am opening​​ time, please wait until​​ the next opening time of 9.00am.​​ If you miss​​ this,​​ please ring the doorbell once, and wait until a staff member​​ is free​​ to open the door.

Thankyou!

Please​​ don’t forget to call us if your child is not going to be in​​ for any reason, as we must record these for the local authority. ​​
