During this period, normal attendance protocols are in place and you should report any absences. As the school office will be closed, the school absence line will not be staffed during this time, please email nurseryattendance@elcschool.org.uk in the first instance, or if this isn’t possible, telephone 07718662056 to report the absence.

If you haven’t informed us your child will not attend nursery during the period mentioned above and your child does not attend, a member of nursery attendance staff will contact you to find out the reason for absence. Please let us know in advance if your child will be absent.

Questions or Queries

When schools are closed during holiday periods, our Centre Manger Danielle Sackree is the lead in our nursery setting. As always, the first point of contact is the nursery staff to support you with any initial questions or queries you may have, but if you need to speak to our Centre Manager, the nursery staff will put you in touch.
