Well Being

Our extension to our nurture facilities is completed today. There will be a 'opening cermony' in the next few weeks after we have fully furnished and equipped the room. We now have a wonderful new space for children to enjoy and our pastoral care continues to work so well, because of the wonderful team, led by Mrs Priest, who look after all the children's wellbeing at Crestwood Park.

School Nurse - Parent Drop-in dates...

A reminder that the school nurse will be available to meet with parents on Wednesday 13th March between 9:00am and 11:00am.  No appointments necessary, please drop-in.  In the event you are unable to attend these dates, we have alternative proposed dates of 15th May (3:00pm - 4:00pm) and 20th June (9:00am - 11:00am).
