Welcome to all our new families ! This term we have had quite a lot of changes in our ELC . Along with one group moving on to school , the Cooper children moving to Edgerley and half the Langley children moving to Cooper , we have also had 30 new families join us , 14 in Langley room , 3 in Mead room, 7 in Cooper room , 3 in Chapple room and 2 in Edgerley room ! So to those families who are now "old hands" please intoduce yourself when you see new faces around the corridors.
We have also had Mrs Katherine Baird join our staff team as she is covering Miss Marcus' absence in the Chapple room until the end of the year. The children have already bonded with her and the staff have appreciated the way she has "slotted in" so easily. I am sure the Chapple children (who are now our oldest group ) will share some great experiences with Mrs Baird over the next 2 terms.
As the Edgerley and Chapple groups are now much larger than last term they will not be joining together on Fridays . Mrs Susan Lock will cover Mrs Bishop's non contact day assisted by Mrs Nacca.
Our first week has gone quite smoothly and the children have all coped amazingly well. There have only been a few tears (and they were more from parents not children !) We look forward to sharing you and your child's journey with us. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have or for any assistance you need at any time,
