We had a great time at our Halloween parties today! We loved all the costumes and the children really enjoyed some fun face painting.

We hope you all have a nice half term break and we will see you all on Monday 2nd November.
In your child's folder we have sent home a permission slip for our fire station trips. Please return this in your child's folder on Monday 2nd November.

Many thanks,
Jolly Pirates team.

Dear Parents,

Our last day before half term is Friday 23rd October. Morning session will run 9.15am - 11.45am as normal and the afternoon session will run 12.30pm - 3.00pm as normal.
We will be closed Monday 26th October - Friday 30th October (5 days inclusive).
We re-open on Monday 2nd November with normal session times.

After circle time discussion and planning today with the children, the children can wear fancy dress outfits on Friday for our party. Some of the children asked if they could just wear their own clothes and not outfits, that is also allowed.
We look forward to a fun filled party and seeing some great outfits/ costumes.
