Issue 33

January - March

Happy New Year! Thank you for picking up the latest issue of Lots for Tots Derby.

This time of the year can seem pretty bleak but we have been working hard to find out what is on for families. Hopefully we will not have as much rain!

We have included two competitions in this issue. Kip McGrath Education Centres are kindly offering one lucky Lots for Tots reader the chance to win a family cinema ticket and Music Time are offering 10 free classes.

If you are thinking about childcare for 2016 then this issue’s ‘Lots for Little Minds’ section has details of lots of local Nurseries, Pre-schools and also a Childminder.

The annual Bump to Five Show will be held on Sat 30th April at the Riverside Centre, Pride Park.

Put the date into your diary! For information or to register for free entry see: www.bumptofive.co.uk Mother’s Day is on Sunday 6th March this year.

I hope that you all get deservedly spoilt.

Wishing you all a fantastic year.

Laying the foundations for a bright future Derby High is pleased to announce that from January 2016 our Pre-School and Infant pupils will be housed in a brand new, purpose built infant school building on the Primary School site.

Pupils have taken a huge interest in watching their new school emerge. The children in Reception were so inspired by the construction activity on site they even built their own igloo from empty milk containers.

Michelle Hannaford, Head of Derby High Primary, has been looking forward to this development for the school. “We are very excited to have created a modern, spacious environment for the boys and girls.”

“In our latest inspection our EYFS was rated as excellent in all categories and the new building will further enhance our provision for the primary-aged children at Derby High.”

Derby High Primary welcomes girls and boys aged 3-11.

For information about joining the school please visit the Derby High website:
