LITTLE NODDY Q&A

Parent Information

As your child enters pre-school, we know that you probably have a lot of questions. We want to make sure that you and your child feel at home here at Little Noddy, so we have come up with a list of the most frequently asked questions about this very important first year of school. If the question that you are looking for is not listed, please send it to us and we will get back as soon as possible.

The school is closed on all public holidays. These Include:
Human Rights Day
Good Friday & Family Day
Workers Day
Youth Day
Heritage Day
Freedom Day

Individual reports are sent out twice a year, mid-year and year-end.

As an ongoing tradition at Little Noddy – the school shirt and shorts/skorts must be worn on Fridays and on all school outings.

The school does provides a morning drop-off facility from 7:00am – 8:30am where staff are ready to assist in children alighting from vehicles.

Under no circumstances will children be permitted to leave the school premises with any person except the parent, guardian or appointed & authorised person (Authorisation in writing).

In the case of children having to leave early, please let their class teacher, as well as the front office know, so that we may have them ready on time. Please note that there is a buzzer on the front motorised gate on the road as well as on the electric gate at the front door as well as a full time security guard – security is important to us.

Pearson Academy is a new, independent junior primary school under the same ownership and Principal leadership as the highly-respected Little Noddy Pre-school. Grades 1-3.

We aim to provide a smooth transition into primary school education, continuing the foundation established at Little Noddy of providing facilities and education at the highest level, that exceeds the required standards and inspires young minds.
