Registration for this course is tomorrow at 9.30am (Tuesday 15th Sept) at school if you wish to attend. Children will not be allowed to attend with the parent, so if you are interested, please arrange alternative care for your child.

UPDATE! - as well as being open for parents with a child already in East Oxford Primary School, parents from without a sibling in school are also welcome.
But children are not allowed so you will need to find alternative childcare arrangements.
