f hatchom Pre-SGhool •X*iti Mana We looked into reopening in June but the demand for a place at this time was not enough to make reopening financially viable and the decision was made to remain closed. All staff remained furloughed for the period and we were happy to welcome children and staff back to Preschool in September. Thorough risk assessments were completed and shared with staff before returning. Everyone familiarised themselves with the government guidelines and the risk assessment forthe building created bythe Thatcham Town Council to whom we hlre our buildin& The re-opening went smoothly and we encountered no issues. All children seemed very famlliar already with the use of sanitizer and had no trouble followingthe new extra hygiene measures in place. We renewed Mlchelle's contrart with reduced hours in September as we no longer required someone forthe initial position. Michelle later received an opportunity to work one to one with a child in a school and decided this was more suited for her skillset. We felt it unnecessaryto replace her at this time. We have had no conflrmed case of COVID-19 amon& either the children or the staff. One parent tested positive and advice was sought from the DFE who conformed no action was required and the child completed the isolation period before returning. Two members of staff have had to isolate on a number of occasions after beln8 contacted by track and trace, neither developed symptoms. No Christmas party was held this year. In January Preschool opened as normal but due to a new lockdown and school closures forming part ofthat, 12 children remained absent due to parental decision not to send thelr child in. It was made clear we were open for all, notjust key workers. We contacted parents via email. text tapestry and Facebook. ersR ri12021>2021 Thatcham PfftS¢hool ts ¢ommRtod to saleguardlng andpromoting the wemare of childrnn. Burdwood Community Centre.
