EYFS New Starters
Dear Parents/ Carers,
We are delighted that you have chosen to send your child to Fernvale Primary School. As parents, some of you will already have some knowledge of the school with siblings already at school whilst for others, this will be your child’s first experience of school life.
Here is some information about our induction process we hope you find it useful.
Kind regards, The EYFS Team
Thank you for returning your acceptance letters we will be collating your child's pre-school and staff from the EYFS will be visiting the preschools in June.
Our first event will be our Induction Evening for Parents/Carers on Tuesday 21st June at 7pm. During this meeting you will get your induction pack, find out who your child's teacher will be, learn about the EYFS curriculum and spend time in the EYFS unit. This event is for parents only, no children.
Then we would like to invite you and your child to our Stay and Play
If your surname is A-J then your stay and play is Wednesday 29th June 9.45-11.00
If your surname is K-Z then your stay and play is Wednesday 29th June 1.15-2.30
We will need you to stay with your child at this event and sorry but no younger siblings can be accommodated.
Then we would like your child to come for a school visit and stay at school with us for this session.
If your surname is A-J then your child's visit is Monday the 4th July from 1.30-2.45
If your surname is K-Z then your child's visit is Tuesday the 5th July from 1.30-2.45
We will settle the children into school by having a staggered entry into full time school with all children full time from Thursday 8th September with options for longer staggered entry if required.
Here is the plan.
