From the Little Acorns Pre School
On the premises of Sidegate Primary School, we have two settings.
Within the school, Oaks is located next to the reception classes.
We have access to a few school resources, which helps with the transition into the reception programme.
Both locations offer a covered space.
Please make sure your kid has wellington boots, a thick coat, waterproofs, and weather-appropriate attire.
Additionally, we ask that you bring extra clothing because the kids will have access to mud and water.
Please make sure you pack a labelled bag with a change of clothes for your child.
Please make sure your child is dressed in a way that allows them to independently take care of their bathroom requirements.
Every child who attends Little Acorns Preschool will have a personal online learning journey that documents their experiences at preschool and includes observations and pictures.
The system is hosted in the UK on safe servers under the name Tapestry.
Building a record of the child's learning is in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage.
Please call to let us know if your kid will be missing from pre-school for any reason.
If your kid has a cold or diarrhoea, please keep them home from preschool for 48 hours.
Please don't bring your child in if they don't seem like themselves or are showing symptoms of an illness.
