Safeguarding Training Day Staff training and development is something that we value the importance of here at 22 Street Lane Nursery. We pride ourselves in holding regular staff training days and refresher sessions so that our staff are up to date with key current themes and trends and understand the importance of safeguarding children within our care. We are pleased to say; all staff attended our annual in house safeguarding training day which was held on Saturday 7th April, the course ‘Working Together to Safeguard Children’ covered;

• Analysis of case studies and serious case reviews • The importance of Early Help

• The signs and symptoms of abuse • What to do if we have a concern about a child

(We will be closed on the following dates for staff training: Thursday 28th June & Wednesday 24th October)

Individual Photographs On Tuesday 15th May, Charles from Arts Photography will be coming in to take individual photographs of the children. If your child does not attend on the Tuesday and you would like your child to have their photograph taken you will be able to bring them in the morning.

Please see Kate at reception so that we can allocate you a 5-minute time slot. Please note, we will be extremely busy so can you please ensure that you arrive in time as you may miss your slot. Thank you.
