Marhamchurch Pre-School

Marhamchurch Pre-School Early Years Care and Education for Children 2-5 Years Marhamchurch Pre-School has more than 25 years experience in caring for young children.

We are a registered charity providing day care and sessional care during term time for children aged between 2 and 5 years. We are registered with Ofsted and are a non-profit making organisation managed by a parent committee. The move to our new purpose-built pre-school in 2008 was the result of two years work to find a permanent home. The building has been supported by The Big Lottery, Cornwall C

ommunity Foundation and Family Services, as well as very generous donations from local organisations and fundraising activities arranged by committee members.

Itโ€™s that time of year again when mini eggs are lining the supermarket shelves. But, did you know that, just like grapes, they are the perfect size to block a small childโ€™s airway and choke them? And, their hard shell can make it difficult to dislodge with standard first aid techniques.

With whole grapes we advise cutting them in half lengthways and ideally into quarters to create thin strips. But chopping up mini eggs isnโ€™t as easy. So, what can you do?

1. Hide them from the children and eat them yourself โ€“ good luck with that!

2. Break them into small pieces with a rolling pin. Or, crush them in a pestle and mortar. Or melt them a little first.

3. Opt for a different treat. Larger, hollow eggs are much safer for little ones.

For more practical tips and advice to keep children safe from choking take a look at our guide: https://capt.org.uk/resources/choking-fact-sheet/
