Little Acorns – Class of 2021
Little Acorns has gone from strength to strength this year and we are so proud to say that all of our places were taken up this term! A huge thank you to all our families for your wonderful support. The children have had an amazing year on the forest-field and we could not be prouder of each and everyone them! Here are some recent photos of their outdoor adventures:

Our Very First Little Acorns Update
This is one of our first blog posts about Little Acorns, back when we had just started offering extended hours provision.
The Little Acorns used to eat their lunch in the main school hall but they currently eat in the classroom.
How are the new Little Acorns getting along?
This is a question I have been asked several times over the past couple of weeks! And the answer is wonderfully, of course!
For those of you who do not already know, Little Acorns is the name of the 30-hours provision we currently offer our 3 and 4 year olds here at St. Matthew’s. If your child is in our morning Nursery class, you can also enrol them in our afternoon session which runs Monday – Thursday from 11.45am – 3.30pm.
The morning and afternoon sessions run continuously with the children staying at school for lunch. You can pay for a hot school dinner or send your child in with a packed lunch.
If you would like to know more about what happens during the session, have a look at the outline of our Little Acorns day.
There is a fee for attending Little Acorns. Depending on your circumstances, you may be eligible for funding to cover the cost. You can find out more about this here.
If you have any further questions or might be interested in enrolling your child, please contact Louise Morgan in the school office: office@st-matthews.merton.sch.uk or speak to one of us at drop-off/pick-up.
