Collection Times A request to all parents to please keep to the agreed arrival and collection timings for your child. Up to Date Contact Details To ensure we are able to contact you in an emergency, we need to make sure we have the correct details for you and anyone else you would like us to list as your child’s emergency contact. If you are running late or something has happened that will delay you in collecting your child on time please inform our School Office as soon as possible on 01582 518800 and ask for the message to be passed to the Nursery Manager. We would therefore appreciate if you could let the office know of any information which would be useful for our records. Injuries at Home Password Please provide a password to the Early Years Manager if you have not done so already. For security and safeguarding reasons we cannot release a child to anyone unknown to us without a password. Sickness We would like to remind you that if your child has an infectious illness they must be kept away from school for a full 48 hours. Our Safeguarding procedures involve keeping confidential records of any concerns a staff member may have about a child, which may range from an unexplained mark, scratch, bruise, graze or cut to something more serious. If your child has had an injury at home, please tell a member of staff when you drop your child off at Nursery or Reception. On rare occasions our concern about a child may mean that we have to consult other agencies. Unless it is not safe for a child, we would always aim to achieve this with a parent's consent. The procedures, which we follow, have been laid down by the Luton Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB), and the school has adopted a Child Protection Policy in line with this for the safety of all. Any medicine that needs to be administered must be handed into the School Office.
