Our Nursery is an exciting place to learn. The children are skilfully enabled to become independent and resilient learners in an environment where they are encouraged to lead and develop their own learning. Staff carefully scaffold their play modelling appropriate language and imparting new skills and knowledge. The children spend most of the day engaged in self chosen activities and we totally embrace the school ethos of ‘Nature, Nurture, Knowledge’ by using the whole environment all of the time and responding to each child as an individual who requires their own curriculum and has their own individual needs.
Children are welcome to come to Nursery either wearing the school uniform or their own clothing however it is important that they are dressed appropriately for the season as we access outdoors all year round (as well as going to Forest Schools sessions). They will also need suitable wet weather clothing in school especially wellies. Changes of clothing are also vital! We encourage exploration and know that children do get messy sometimes. Having their own clothing to change in to helps ease any transitions that your child may need to make.
Finally, it is important that parents work as partners as much as possible whilst your child is in Nursery. We love seeing what you do at home with your child on Tapestry and we wouldn’t be able to run our Forest School Sessions without your help.
