If they do not normally attend on a Monday morning sign up for a slot on the
sign up sheet in the lobby or if you want a sibling in the photo or a member of the family. If they normally attend on a Monday morning then drop them off as normal and we will organise the sittings during the morning. All the information is in the ​​ letter you have received which is also on the website.
