Information received from the Children's Commissioner.

The Department for Education (DfE) has today confirmed that early years providers in England will be able to open to our Apple children - regardless of whether or not their parents are key workers - as of Monday 1 June at the earliest.

It's important to note that this date is provisional, and dependent on scientific evidence.

Once we have gone through the revised protocols suggested, by Hertfordshire County Council & PHE, we will be in a better position to announce exactly how arrangements will work, re: Collections, Drop-offs and C-19 related Sickness etc.

The main thing is, it's only a couple of weeks away, fingers crossed. Phew!!!
