An enormous thank you to everyone that has already returned their sponsorship form for our sponsored bike ride event next week.  It’s still not too late to return yours.  Please don’t worry if your child doesn’t ride a bike, they can ride a scooter, they can push a dolly in a pram or they can hitch a ride with a friend.  Once your child has completed their laps, we will return your sponsorship form to you so that sponsor money can be collected. All monies raised will be spend on new resources for all the pre-school children to enjoy!

Our main pre-school email address has changed to admin@cullomptonpreschool.org Please amend your records.

Cullompton Pre-School are on Facebook!  If you ‘like’ us you will be able to view our regular updates of our activities at pre-school.  Unfortunately, staff will be unable to accept any friendship requests from families of children currently attending pre-school and/or whose children may attend in the future.

If your child is starting school in September – Over the next week a member of staff from the office will be asking you for consent for us to display your child’s name and their nominated primary school.  This will be displayed for other parents to see.  This is useful so that you can see which other children are attending the same primary as your child.  Of course, if you do not wish your child’s name to be included in this display just simply cross your child’s name off the list.

End of day collection – Please note that parents who stand in the queue on the right-hand side of the path (those that also have to collect from primary school) will be given priority at collection time.  Please wait to be called forward by a member of staff in the office when it is your turn.  Please share this information with other people that collect your child on your behalf. Thank you for your co-operation.

Reminder for parents and carers – please remember to wear a facemask at drop off and pick up times or whenever you need to pop into reception.

Now that we have started to enjoy the warm weather again, we would like to remind parents of our policy regarding sun cream.  You will recall that you previously signed a Sun Cream Agreement form for your child which reads, “Cullompton Pre-School staff will not be able to apply sun cream to your child during session times.  It is the responsibility of parents/carers to apply sun cream to their child before arrival at pre-school.  There are many sun creams on the market now that can be applied once at the beginning of the day that will safely protect your child during the length of their session or day at pre-school”.  Please keep your children safe in the sun.
