HOLLAND PARK PRE-SCHOOL
APRIL 2020 — MARCH 2021
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic Holland Park Pre-School had a very different, difficult and unprecedented year.
Holland Park Pre-School closed on the 20" March 2020 after the Government Announced the lockdown of all Schools and Early Years settings. During this period of time we continued to keep all of our families updated on any developments linked to Government Advice at the time.
- We sent out links to Government and Educational websites that contained important advice, and activities that parents or carers could do at home with their children. We hoped that the children could continue to learn and develop their skills at home during this time.
In line with Government requirements we maintained weekly communication with the families of our most vulnerable children offering them extra support and help when needed. We also focused on the importance of maintaining one’s mental health and provided links to access help if needed. We continued to work very closely with RBKC Children’s Services Team, the Early Years Intervention Team, Speech and Language Team and Families Services. This transparent communication was absolutely vital over this difficult period of time and continues to be an essential tool when working with our most vulnerable families. Lockdown also brought with it, financial implications, we suddenly lost our Termly Fee Income which meant that in April 2020 all staff had to be furloughed. During May 2020 we experience some very big thunderstorms and lots of heavy rain. The Pre-School Building is located in the grounds of Holland Park, on the inside of the children’s Playground area, this area had been closed to the public for the entire duration of the first Lockdown period. In order to check the building, we had to acquire permission from the parks manager to enter the area. This proved difficult to obtain as all the Parks Office staff were working from home. Once we had obtained this and were able to enter the Pre-School building, to our horror the building had sustained severe water damage due to build-up of water on the roof. Water was pouring down the interior walls. As soon as we were able to, we began to engage contractors to start the process of repair. However, the building had to be aired and dried out completely before work could begin. This could not have happened at a more challenging time for us.
-
Although the Government later announced that Early Years Settings would be permitted to open in June 2020, we sadly were not able to reopen due to the ongoing building works. This was a very disappointing and disheartening time for us and our
-
families.
-
We continued to communicate with our families through this period of time and set up some face to face Zoom and Teams meetings. We especially focused on the children that were going onto Primary Schools in the coming September 2020. At the end of every July, we would normally have a Pre-School graduation ceremony and celebration with all of our families attending so it was particularly sad that due to the Pandemic we were not able to do this. Not to physically get to wish the children well as they continued on to the next stage of their learning journey was particularly difficult. Over this period of time we put together our COVID-19 Risk Assessment. This document was and is constantly under review based on the changing information that we were and are receiving from the government.
-
We were finally able to re-open Holland Park Pre-School in September 2020. Things looked and felt very different in the classroom, we had to remove quite a lot of resources in the hope of eliminating items that posed a risk of harbouring or passing on the COVID-19 virus. We also introduced twice weekly Lateral Flow testing for our staff and the wearing of extra PPE, facemasks and transparent face shields to be used at their own discretion. We introduced antibacterial Gel stations and extra hand washing protocols for staff and children, social distancing and a one-way system. Sadly, we also had to restrict parental access to the classroom. We dedicated a great deal of time at the beginning of term to ensuring that the children were not frightened by the virus and the changes we had implemented. We gave them frequent opportunities to talk about their feelings in circle time and during our language groups we read stories about the virus and used flash cards explaining why we had to carefully wash hands often, why the grownups were wearing face coverings and why we had to follow the new government guidelines to keep ourselves and our families safe.
-
The children were and are remarkably resilient, and quickly adapted to the new normal. We had hoped to be able to have our parent evening in December 2020, before the holiday period however as the term progressed and the situation with the virus grew more concerning it became clear that we would have to cancel it. This was a blow to everyone’s morale as we had so much been looking forwardto it.
-
We all happily retumed to school in January 2021. Our staff and families were eager to get back to Pre-School. Many said that the routine of bringing their children to Pre-School brought them a sense of normal family life. Being inside Holland Park gives us the opportunity to take advantage of our incredibly beautiful environment, we resumed our trips into the park much to the delight of the children and staff. We visited the Formal Gardens, the Japanese Kyoto Garden, the Forest Areas and played games in the Green Grassed areas. We tried and planned to go into the Park twice weekly and only missed on two occasions due to staff absence for self-isolation purposes.
-
With Easter approaching we planned our Yearly Easter Egg Hunt. Although not able to invite our families, it was a huge success with the children. We made Easter Bonnets and then they eagerly hunted for and collected their eggs. We were later able to share photos of the day with our families. Holland Park Pre-School staff and committee would like to extend a huge thank you
-
to everyone that worked alongside us and supported us through this very challenging year, and enabled us to deliver Support, care and education to our children and their families.
Thank You
