Firstly, I would like to welcome you all to a new year at Tots & Juniors, and we welcome all our new families that have started with us from the beginning of the year. We are hoping that 2025 will be a great year for all of us at T&J’s, and that it will be full of amazing opportunities and activities for the continuous learning and development of the children.

In January we have already had some amazing activities set up to celebrate National Handwriting Day, - mark making in rice, making letters using colourful spaghetti. Chinese New Year ( the year of the snake ) – exploring chinese food, mark making and watching videos of the dragon dancing!
National Puzzle Day – enjoying completing puzzles. We will keep you updated with more dates for the dairy with other days we are celebrating in the future.

Moving Forward for Preschool Collections.
We are asking that parents collect at certain times during the day, to avoid staff having to leave the children before the end of the sessions and the doorbell causing upset to new starters.
If you wish to collect before these times we ask that you ring the setting or Class Dojo us, so we know to get your child ready and that they can come out with a member of staff which may not necessarily be the preschool team it may be admin or our receptionist.

AM collections we ask that you collect between 11.45am-12pm

1pm collections at 1pm

PM collections we ask you collect between 3.30pm-3.45pm

Thankyou for your cooperation in helping us with this.

Attention

Reminder...

The weather is still not great at this time of year, but the children are still enjoying plenty of time outside, so we do ask that you send them in warm clothes, including a hat and gloves ensuring they are named. Also, can the children bring in spare clothes to be able to get changed into if they are getting wet outside during water play/ or if we get caught short when playing in the big garden and the rain gets us a bit wet.



Our supply of spare clothes is running low, so if your child has recently borrowed clothes from nursery, please can they be returned. If you have any spare clothes aged 2-5 years, donations would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
