Help raise funds for Woodland Corner!

On 15th April Caroline's husband Matthew will be running the Brighton Marathon to raise funds for Woodland Corner which provides a fantastic playgroup and breakfast and after school and holiday club facility for the children of Nayland and its surrounding villages.


The fees at Woodland Corner are kept low and affordable because of the amazing efforts of the trustee and staff who fundraise enthusiastically and relentlessly to provide all of the extras that make Woodland Corner so special. The shopping list of things that they want to buy for the children is endless so he is hoping that his efforts in Brighton, and your support, will help reduce that list.

You can sponsor Matthew online here.

Cake Sale this Saturday!

Don't forget our cake stall this Saturday! Please deliver your cakes to Woodland Corner on Friday or to the stall outside Kerridges early on Saturday.


Woodland Corner maintains a Google Calendar (select the "Calendar" tab above) in which we endeavour to record all upcoming events so do remember to check it.

Free Boden Mugs!

Please don’t forget our Boden party at Woodland Corner next Thursday at 7.30pm.

The first 50 customers who order at Woodland Corner on the night will receive one of these fantastic Boden takeaway china mugs so don’t forget your credit/debit cards. The £3 raffle ticket at the door (2 for £5 so bring a friend!) will entitle you to a free glass of wine and entry into our raffle for £50 of Boden vouchers. Finally, we have just heard from Boden that (as well as the 20% discount and free delivery & returns already advertised) there will be a 25% discount on all mini-Boden ordered as a result of our party!

Let the Woodland Corner office know ASAP if you will be attending.

IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT BUILDING WORK AT WOODLAND CORNER!

Dear Parents,

As you will have noticed work has started on the new extension at Nayland School and will be ongoing until September. There will be some disruption to services at Woodland Corner but we hope to keep these to a minimum and we would ask for your patience and flexibility.



POWER SUPPLY
On Wednesday 29th February there will be a disruption to our power and water supply. Rather than close the facility we have decided that Woodland Corner will remain open but we will not be able to provide hot food for Breakfast and After School Clubs. Children at Breakfast Club will be offered cereal and yogurt as usual and bread and spreads instead of toast. We will provide sandwiches for children attending After School Club instead of the usual cooked meal. Although our heating system will also be out of action the building is well insulated and retains heat efficiently. However, we would recommend that you ensure that your child has sufficient warm clothing on the day.
If you need to contact us during the power down period then please use mobile number 07551 450998. Please note that this number is for our Trips & Outings Mobile phone and not usually turned on so only use it whilst our landline is not available.
SCHOOL DINNERS
It is not going to be possible for us to safely transport hot meal from the school across the site during the build programme so school dinners will not be available from Woodland Corner from Monday 5th March indefinitely. If your child is attending lunch club at Woodland Corner they must be supplied with a packed lunch from next Monday 5 March onwards.
ACCESS
There are likely to be some problems with access to our building, which we are expecting to be from 5th March. We will advise you of details once they have been confirmed. The school has lent us some hi-visibility jackets for children which will be available this week.

Please look out for emails and website updates from us keeping you informed of developments. If you have not already subscribed to email updates from our website then you may find it useful to do so by logging onto the home tab on our website: http://woodlandcornernayland.blogspot.com and scrolling down to the bottom right where you can subscribe. We will also be updating our Facebook and Twitter pages with any relevant information.

Thanking you in advance for your patience and co-operation,

Sue Clarke
MANAGER

Fees

Invoices are going out this week for second half Spring term fees and will be due for payment by Friday 9th March.

Can we please remind all parents and carers of our new Fees Policy whereby a £5 administration charge will be applied immediately fees become overdue. As in the past, we are happy to discuss budget payment plans, if required, but can we stress that this needs to be done BEFORE the invoice becomes due otherwise late payment charges will apply. Please speak to Sue Clarke or Caroline Keep if you have any queries.

Funshine Holiday Club Easter 2012

We are now taking bookings for our Easter Holiday Funshine Club which runs from Monday 2nd – Thursday 5th April.
