Dogs on the playground

Please remember that if you bring your dog with you to collect your children, please stay in the corner near Pre-School as we have children who are nervous of dogs.

We can send children to you from their classroom doors. If they are in Penguin Class, we will bring them on to the playground to find you as it is impossible to see the Pre-School corner from their door.

We are also conscious that a busy playground and running children can stress some dogs and may cause them to act out of character and would hate for there to be an accident.

Unfortunately, we will have to stop dogs coming on to the playground if they are not in the correct area.

 

Parent conversations

On a few occasions, adults on the playground have been overheard by other adults and children to be talking about some children in a derogatory manner. As you can imagine, this has been upsetting for those overhearing these conversations. Please be mindful of those around you and the impact your words can have on adults and children alike.
