We are signing a petition to support our local ofsted approved nursery and wraparound care from a devastating immediate closure based on ‘contractual issues’. The contractual issues are unproven and unreasonable and have left a village of parents worried if they will be able to work, and devastated that their children are being torn away from a much loved, and much needed facility.

Many people of Allhallows and neighbouring villages have asked for an explanation for this decision from the committee members and local ward councillor and have so far been ignored.

This petition will be presented to anyone who will listen for us parents and villagers to be heard and have a right for our say on the choices made for OUR village hall.

The hall charity states

‘Charitable objects
A VILLAGE HALL FOR THE USE OF THE INHABITANTS OF THE BENEFICIAL AREA WITHOUT DISTINCTION OF POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS OR OTHER OPINIONS INCLUDING USEFUL MEETINGS, LECTURES AND CLASSES AND FOR OTHER FORMS OF RECREATION AND LEISURE TIME OCCUPATION WITH THE OBJECT’

Please sign and support us gain back if you are in agreement of the nursery and wraparound provision remaining for community, not just the children today but for many years to come.

One hundred people have stepped up to defend the nursery. It has been exhausting trying to get answers from officials who refuse to talk to us but seeing this support keeps me going.

This nursery and wrap around care. Is the only nursery in this village and neighbouring villages that allows 2 years and lunch for children. It also allows wrap around care and breakfast club, including walking bus for primary school children. Allowing parents to be able to work and support their families in this growing economy.

Sad to see the closure of this facility - especially as High Halstow has also lost the early years option too. With more homes being developed on the peninsula, the closure of this facility is a tragedy.

This is a much needed provision run by qualified, kind ,caring staff. My grandson attends and is very happy there,. Whatever the issues are surely they can be resolved for the sake of the children in this village.

This is a valuable service for the children and parents in the community. It should not have been allowed to close with no prior notice. How worrying for the working parents who now have no childcare in place and how upsetting for the cjildrem who sounded as though they were flourishing under the nursery.

This nursery is a vital provision for families in the local villages. Without this nursery many parent cannot work. They offer wrap around care which is also so very needed in the community for older children. Something that isn’t offered within the local school.

Punishing children over a disagreement is wrong.
