The Early Years Team have been out visiting the children and their families who are due to join us in Reception in September this week. All the families have signed our home school agreement and have a commemorative photo, which we will keep and re-share when they leave us in seven years time! We have lots more events planned for our new families before we finish for Summer including stay and plays with menu sampling, transition days and a family picnic.
