This, however, will be looking very different. The 1st change is Pre-School will not be in the hall, instead we are using Green Class as our base. we will have access to an outside area, toilets and the playground.

As guideline states social distancing will look different within Early years and social 'Bubbles' will be used instead. This means as a group we will be social distanced from other groups within school. Shannon and I will with our children in our 'bubble.'

Resources that are easy to clean will be used during the session and cleaned properly everyday.

Each child has their own, name labeled mark making tools that they can help themselves too from the trays.

The classroom also looks a little different to the 'norm' but as much as possible things will remain the same (See photos)
