Subject: URGENT – Your response needed for Wacky to be able to contact you (GDPR)

Dear Parents and Carers,

As you may be aware, an update to digital privacy regulation comes into force in May 2018. The Wacky Club must have your explicit consent to send you email communications after this time.

If you would like to continue to receive emails from The Wacky Club, including booking forms, holiday programmes and newsletters, please respond to this email with the following statement:

                I consent to receiving email communications from The Wacky After School and Holiday Club.

You may notify us in writing or by email at any time that you wish to withdraw your consent to receive these communications. In the absence of explicit withdrawal of your consent, the Wacky Club will remove your details from our email distribution two years after the last communication from you to the Wacky Club. Updates to our email distribution will be made at the start of each school year.

Please note that as part of our contract with you to provide childcare for your child, we hold several other types of data on your child, and we may be required to hold this data for longer under other legislation (e.g. Local Authority requirements on retention of child attendance records). Please contact us if you would like more information about this.

The Wacky Club takes your privacy very seriously and will only use the personal information that you provide to us to administer your account, and to provide the service that you have requested from us. We shall contact you with information about our childcare provision and your account, but we shall never misuse your email address or any other data or pass it on to third parties.

Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us on:

bookings@wackyclub.co.uk or chair@wackyclub.co.uk

With thanks and best wishes

The Wacky Club Committee

 Many of the Wacky after school children entered a competition to design a new logo for the club. The winner was chosen by our voluntary committee , it is one of our year sixs. We would like to say well done to all the children who took part and  it was very difficult decision to choose a winner. Congratulations to Elizabeth Cousins for fabulous new design. :)

We recently changed the sign-out procedure at Wacky to help us keep your children safe. 
 
When you buzz at the Wacky/Rainbow gate, the member of staff who lets you in will meet you at the entrance door to the Wacky portakabin, and will sign out your child at that point, leaving you free to then find your child and take him or her home. When all the Wacky team are outside, the member of staff will ask you to come to the rear of the building, and sign-out will occur then. To help us in this, we ask that you always enter via the Wacky/Rainbow gate, even when the school gates are open (e.g. for other after school activities).
 
We hope that this small change will enable us to ensure that all children are safely "handed over" to you at the end of their session, while also keeping an accurate record of the children still on site. Please do ask Jo or any of the committee members if you have any questions about this change.

The school have asked us to make parents aware of impending changes to parking on Church Street and their advice to Wacky Club families as users of the school site. You can read about this in their School Safety Notice.
Thank you
Kind regards
