1. We've made up a bunch of name tags so you can easily remember who each other is - especially on a busy day. These are on a corkboard - just find yours and put it back on your departure. (You don't have to wear one - only if you want to). I've also put your children's names under your name.
2. We have purchased a safety gate to go accross the entrance to the toilets. This should stop our toddlers playing in there or getting jammed in the door. It's pretty easy to operate, but just get us to show you if you can't work it out.
3. Sign in Table. On this table will be a sheet with everyone's names on it. Please just sign in by your name (once again, for safety - so we know how many to account for in case of a fire). On this table will be the name tags, any new term calendars, and brochures for other child related events like Mainly Music etc. We also have 'sign-up' sheets for new people to fill in so we have their details. If you bring a friend who is wanting to continue, please have them fill in one of these.
4. We've now got reminder signs on the kitchn doors that children aren't allowed in there. We need to be mindful of this, and this is a requirement of the Manurewa Baptist Church so they comply with safety regulations. There are reminders to shut the main doors also, for people who come 'visit' us and leave them open. We're putting up the saftey gate over the main entrance at 10.30am rather than 10am so you have a chance to get your prams in.
5. We have a small children's table & chairs set now too - this is great for the those kids who love eating at 'their-size' tables. We're after a couple more chairs to go with it - so if you see any white
ones somewhere - please let us know.That's all from us! Hope you had a blast in Term 3. We have a 2 week break now with the holidays, and then all go on the first tues of the term with a coffee & cake week - remember to bring a 'small' plate (we supply crackers for children to avoid iced cake etc being mashed into the carpet).
Happy Holidays, Monique
