Good morning mums, dads and carers!

We will be starting to encourage the children to walk from the school gate to the classroom door after the Easter holidays in the summer term.  Until then, please feel free to walk your child down all the way to the door as usual.  It can be a big and scary thing when you are tiny to walk that far away from the person looking after you when they are normally right by our sides!

When we return after Easter this may not happen automatically for some children.  Some children are already confident to walk down by themselves but others may need more of a gradual distancing.  You may decide to leave them with a few footsteps to walk by themselves and then gradually increase this every few days until they are walking from the gate by themselves.

Our children are all unique and develop in different ways- they cannot be rushed! 🙂

As always, you are more than welcome to come in and look at the children’s profiles in the mornings or pop in after school.

Many thanks,

Reception team
