Thank you for your interest in Ducklings Playgroup. This is a small and friendly playgroup which allows children to develop in a relaxed setting.
Please find enclosed the general information pack about our playgroup. We are required to send you our Child Protection Policy before your child attends playgroup, and should you have any questions, the staff will be more than happy to answer them.
The enclosed admission forms need to be completed and returned before your child may attend.
Yours sincerely,

Ducklings Fee Paying Policy
Child's name ...................................................................
Parents are requested to read the following carefully and to sign the undertaking as it forms a legally binding contract. Should you have any query, please speak to the Louise Riddler.
Fees are payable in advance on your child's first session at Ducklings. Invoices are prepared half-termly. Cheques should be made payable to “Louise Riddler”.
It is possible to pay weekly in advance by arrangement. This must be agreed with Louise Riddler before your child begins Playgroup. However, it should be noted that once your child starts Playgroup, should you choose to withdraw her/him from the group for any reason, you will be obliged to pay for sessions for the next 4 weeks.
We cannot refund for non-attendances due to parental choice, the child not settling, illness, holidays etc. as it is our policy to keep fees as low as possible, charging only enough to cover salaries, rent, insurance etc.
If fees are unpaid for a period longer than two weeks, parents may be asked to remove their child from the Playgroup, and should payment not be received, legal action will be taken.
I have read and understood the Fee Paying Policy and agree to be bound by it.

In Playgroup, we have our own hypo-allergenic sunscreen which may be applied to your child by a member of staff if this has been forgotten before the child arrives.
