The safety of our children, our staff and the community as a whole are critically important to us. Please comply with all  rules and guidelines to protect the Mellowes community when you visit. Follow our signs to ensure you maintain social distance, wash your hands and stay safe. 

An external sink is  installed to ensure all children attending Mellowes are now able to wash their hands with warm running water before they enter our premises, using the antibacterial soap from the dispenser, which is gentle enough for little hands. A separate hand paper towel is available to dry hands thoroughly. A bin is provided where these hand towels can be placed and safely disposed of in line with our strict code of safety and our environmental policy.
