BNS:SETTLING IN 

2024-25

All children will be enrolled at Banbridge Nursery School on their first day which is Friday, 23rd August. This heralds the start of the "settling in" phase for all our boys and girls. Please take care to refer to the information you received in your Welcome Pack in June as this will tell you when your child should be dropped off at and collected from school during these first few weeks.

Each day, you will collect your child from the Quiet Room or the playground. Your child's teacher will comment briefly on the day but it is not possible to have an extended conversation at this point as it can cause other children to become anxious or unsettled as they wait for their grown-up to collect them.

If your child's teacher wishes to discuss something with you, she will indicate that she will phone you later or she may ask you to wait until all the children have been collected so that she can give you and your child her full attention. 

Towards the end of October, every parent will be invited to attend a meeting to discuss the progress made by your child during the "settling in" phase and to set targets for future learning. We encourage all our parents to be as involved as possible in their child's learning and development and to this end, you are invited to attend our Curriculum Information Evening from 7-9pm on Wednesday, 25th September. This will provide you with a really great insight into what your child does each day at school and, importantly, why we do things the way we do. Please, make every effort to attend this event; we know you will find it thought-provoking and fun!

SCREEN TIME information can by viewed on the Parent Partnerships page. Just click on the menu and then on Parent Partnerships to be taken there.
