Hello

We would like to give a big warm welcome to a few new faces!

Lillie has transferred from our Keynsham branch, and has joined our Pre-School Team!

Suzannah has also joined our Pre-School team as our new Early Years Teacher!

Chloe who was previously based in our Baby room has returned from maternity leave and joined our Toddler room!

We are so excited to welcome them into the Grosvenor Family

Swaps and additional sessions

As you already know we currently are not doing any swapped or extra sessions to try and keep our bubbles as consistent as possible. We will be continuing this throughout August and are hoping to return to normal in September. Thank you all for understanding and co-operation.

Pre-School Graduation

Sadly as a result of Covid-19, we will not be able to hold Graduation in the usual manner, however, we would really like to celebrate your little one’s time with us and the start of their next chapter!

Thursday 20th August we will be holding a mini Graduation ceremony in the Nursery Garden. There will be a small picnic lunch, and a certificate, and medal ceremony! Unfortunately, parents will not be able to attend the event, but we will take lots of lovely pictures for you! The event will take place from 2 pm - 4 pm.

Drop off and collection

The below procedures will remain in place until at least January, we have done a brilliant job of keeping everyone in the nursery healthy and would like to do our best to maintain this!

We are currently not permitting any parents into the nursery, as a result of this, your little one will be collected and dropped off at the front door by their bubble practitioner. To reduce congestion we are asking Pre-School to drop off around the back (Grosvenor Bridge Road) at the garden gate between 8 am and 9.15 am. Pre-schoolers with younger siblings can be dropped off at the front door. Please line up along the gate and remember to adhere to social distancing rules whilst waiting. Handovers will be shorter than usual to ensure parents are not waiting too long.

We have had a very positive reaction to this system so far and we thank you all for your cooperation!

Illness and exclusion

We must all do our part to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and so our grounds for exclusion are stricter than usual. Should your child present any of the below symptoms they will be removed from their bubbles and isolated with a member of staff in the office, you will be contacted to collect them as soon as possible.

  • Persistent cough

  • Temperature above 38 degrees

All members of the household must isolate until the child in question has received a negative test, proof of test results must be provided.

If you are aware that your child is showing any signs of the above symptoms please do not bring them to the nursery.
