It also allows our EYFS staff to meet and interact with your child in their home environment; we are sure they will have lots of questions of their own to ask too!

Half of the new EYFS cohort will be invited to spend the afternoon in their new indoor/outdoor classroom.

Parents are encouraged to say quick goodbyes so that children can start having fun.

If you have a child with additional needs or is in the process of applying for an Education Health Care Plan, please contact our SENCo, Rachel Hodges, rhodges@east-farleigh.kent.sch.uk.
