When your child comes in to begin their session please help them to find their name and place it under their key worker.  Please ask a member of staff if you are unsure who this is.

We regularly update our EYFS blog. Please like our Broadford Primary Facebook page every time you see an EYFS blog. Feel free to make a comment on the children’s experiences.

Finally the Nursery Parental Consultations will take place throughout the week commencing Monday 19^th October. This will be a short chat about how your child is settling in.  You will shortly be advised of your time.

Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sunshine and dried up all the rain
And Incy Wincy spider climbed up the spout again
