A mid afternoon
drink and snack are provided|| |||||as part of the healthy

in our|| |||||staff's commitment
to their continuous
provisional
development
through|| |||||reliably endorsed
courses, events and training
pathways,
and|| |||||parents/carers
are kept informed
ofthese.|| |||||Little Chicks has produced a pack of policies and procedures
that|| |||||describe arrangements
for dealing
with routine operational
practice,|| |||||complaints,
concerns and any emergency
that may occur during|| |||||operational
hours, They are designed
to ensure effective and safe|| |||||management
of our service and to offer the best possible environment|| |||||and experience
for the children
and families who use it.The policies and|| |||||procedures
are developed
and maintained
in line with and/or exceed|| |||||national
minimum
standards
and regulations,
They are reviewed
regularly|| |||||(at least annually)
and updated
(and CIW informed
of any changes) as|| |||||necessary. The policy pack is available
for all who visit, work
in or use|| |||||Little Chicks to see them. The pack is available
from the setting.|| |||||Communicating
with our parents/carers|| |||||Little Chicks maintains
a website
with up-to-date
information|| |||||The Facebook page continues
to be used by staff to share the upcoming|| |||||topics to be covered, photos of the activities being undertaken
and also|| |||||links to other sites that support
other learning
activities for parents/carers|| |||||to try at home.
It is great to receive instant feedback via the comments|on| |||||the posts from the parents.
Many parents use the Facebook Messenger|| |||||as a way to contact the staff as a n alternative
to the mobile number.|| |||||We also continue to promote
Little Chicks and the upcoming
topics via|| |||||the school e-newsletter
that is distributed
by email every Friday during|| |||||the school term.|| |||||Overview
ofthe Year|| |||||From April 2020 to July 2020 Little Chicks remained
open to all|| |||||vulnerable
children
and children
of Key Workers as directed
by the|| |||||government
during the global COVID pandemic.|| |||||With the school reopening
fully in September 2020 Little Chicks|| |||||continued
to provide wrap around care and support
for nursery
age|| |||||children
in the new cohort. Further
lockdowns
had to be observed|| |||||throughout
the year, particularly
in January
and February
2021 which|| |||||meant our intake was limited yet again to families of Key Workers and|| |||||Vulnerable
children. We also had
eriods where children
