NOTICE BOARD
P.E.
Our little Finches are always active, please ensure suitable footwear is worn or available.
Phone Contact
Please make sure you can always be contacted during the time your child is at Pre-School.
Parking
At drop off and pick up time, please refrain from parking in the disabled bays and also try to park considerately.
Wish List
Each month we put out a list of items that are needed for the children. All you need to do is pick an item, if you can (e.g. wipes, pens, glue sticks) and drop it off when your child is next in.
We also have an Amazon Wishlist which can be accessed via the following link -

Craft Donations
We are appealing for parents to make a donation of £5 per half term towards the cost of arts and crafts materials. If you are able to contribute please put your donation in the box displayed in Preschool or hand to a member of staff.
Stay and Play
Parents, carers and siblings are welcome to spend a 'Stay and Play' morning at Finches in the second half of each term. It is an opportunity to see what your child does at Finches, get to know the staff and talk to your child's Key Worker about their progress. Please ensure your child's key worker is in on the day you wish to visit.
​
Facebook and Whatsapp
We have a closed Facebook group where lots of updates and photos (of those with permission) are posted. This is a great way to see what's going on and keep in the loop! As well as this, the committee have set up a Whatsapp group that is used for updates, questions and general information! Speak to Charley if you'd like to join.
