Dear parents / carers,

We are finding that there are some children who are coming into Nursery suffering from symptoms which may be a sign that they may have the Covid-19 virus.

If children come into Nursery with a main symptom e.g. coughing, then they will be sent home and are advised to have a full PCR test. This guidance is from the Health protection hub and is in place to try to minimise the spread of infection.

The latest covid guidance for Telford and Wrekin can be found here – Do you have main COVID-19 symptoms or other symptoms? – Do you have main COVID-19 symptoms or other symptoms? – Telford & Wrekin Council

Main symptoms are listed as

• a high temperature
• a new, continuous cough
• a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste

Precautionary symptoms on here are outlined as

You are advised to book a COVID-19 test as a precaution, if you are showing some other symptoms that you might have this virus, such as:

• headaches
• aches and pains
• feeling very tired for no good reason
• sore throat
• runny nose
• sneezing
• tummy ache in children.

We will always follow the guidance from the hub to keep our staff and pupils as safe as possible.

Thank you for your continued support

On Friday 15th October, as part of our fairy tale theme, we will be holding a ball. We have been learning about Cinderella and will have our very own party in mighty oaks as a culmination of that learning. If your child attends our Friday sessions they are invited to dress up in party clothes or fancy dress outfits. Please send coats as usual to play outside in and sensible shoes. Thank you in advance for your support.

Mrs Lisa Curnow

We have had lots of children bringing in toys and teddies from home into nursery, as lovely as it is to share our favourite toys as a nursery we cannot be responsible for things being misplaced or left behind at nursery. So we are kindly asking that you leave all toys and teddies at home to keep them safe.

A comforter for those children that sleep will be allowed but kept in your child’s bag until they need it 😊

Thank you for your cooperation,

The Nursery Team 🐞🌳

On October the 21st the Nursery will be celebrating Halloween, the children are encouraged to dress up or come in party clothes should they wish too. We will have lots of Halloween party themed games and activities, as well as party food for our snacks.

On Wednesday 29th September the mighty oaks nursery children will begin to use the forest areas. Half of the children go to the woods in the morning and the other half go in the afternoon. The children who remain in nursery will be having great fun cooking. When it’s your child’s turn to go to the woods the will need to bring in wellies (with their name written in them). Please ensure your child has clothes on that you are happy for them to get a bit muddy. We will provide waterproofs.

Until half term, for the next few weeks, the following children will be going to the woods:

In the morning orange, blue and purple group. That is Miss Preston’s, Mrs Curnow’s and Mrs Ferriday’s groups.

In the afternoon yellow, red and green group. That is Mrs Turner’s, Mrs Giordano’s and Mrs Hall’s group.

If you are unsure which group your child is in please just ask at the gate.

In ladybugs a little boy is missing a pair of blue navy joggers, they are from H&M. Could you all please double check your child’s bag and at home in case they have accidentally gone home with the wrong person.

Thank you,

Ladybugs Team 🐞
