LITTLE NURSERY:
Little Nursery was given it’s name by the children and it is adjoined to the schools Foundation Stage Unit (Big Nursery), whom we work closely alongside. We offer a stimulating, fun and vibrant atmosphere for the children to explore, both indoors and out; our safe, secure outdoor area provides an area for the children to learn about the world around them and is a reflection to our indoor provision areas.
Children are regularly observed by their key person who builds up a strong relationship with the child as well as their family. We pride ourselves on our learning journals, taking time to add important stages in your child’s development which create memories that you can reflect back on in years to come.
Excellent transition arrangements ensure that each child receives a smooth and seamless journey from room to room.
