    God abba, they are taking the mick. :mad: I have to pay my nursery fees in advance, I see no reason why you shouldn't do the same. Definitely start charging them late fees :mad:

    I'm putting a letter out to all parents stating from 1st Sept stating if late payments do continue I will be looking for payment in advance xx

    Good thinking.
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
