			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Nether Heyford Pre-school will be offering transition sessions in September &#8211; October 2011 for the children who are starting the reception class at Bliss Charity Primary School this autumn.</strong></p>
<p>The aim of our transition sessions is to provide support and childcare for children whilst they are attending school part-time during the first term. The children attending afternoon session at Bliss can use the Pre-school during the mornings (Monday to Friday). For those attending morning sessions at Bliss, the Pre-school will be open during the afternoons on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Children benefit by being able to get used to attending a full day’s schooling whilst spending part of their day in a familiar setting.</p>
<p>We arrange safe transfer between school and pre-school for your child so there’s no need to worry you simply drop your child at school or pre-school in the morning and collect them from pre-school or school in the afternoon depending on which school sessions your child is allocated.</p>
<p>All transition sessions must be booked in advance. Fees for the sessions are charged at our normal rate of £3.70 per hour and there is a nominal fee for the school transfers of 50p per day.</p>
<p><strong>If your child does not currently attend our pre-school but you are interested in using this service in September – October 2011, please get in touch with us and we will add your child’s name to our ‘Transition sessions to the Bliss school’ list.</strong></p>
<p><strong>BOOK NOW AS SPACES ARE LIMITED!</strong></p>
