Nursery

Welcome to Nursery

 

In Nursery, our main aim is to provide a safe and nurturing environment which in turn will enable children to thrive and learn.

Our goals for young children are: 

  • to be happy and secure in the learning environment 
  • to learn through active involvement with people, materials, events and ideas
  • to be independent, confident and resilient learners
  • to explore, relate to others, to set their own goals and solve problems.

 

We will strive to provide the children with a rich curriculum that meets the children's interests, their well-being and yet still provides them with memorable first hand learning experiences.

 

We want our children to have the best possible start to their learning journey here in our wonderful Nursery! 

 

We can't wait to work with you all,

Mrs Jackson, Mrs Muir, Mrs Tough, Miss Bateman, Miss Stronach and Kerry 

Wk beginning 13.01.25 - It has been an icy cold week, just look at our figures ice skating in the tough spot. Some were spinning, sliding, travelling fast and slow. We have loved inviting our parents and carers to come and play with us. We hope you had as much fun as we did! At Forest Friday we explored the thick oozy mud, played in the see saw and used our muscles to do some mopping.

Week beg 6.1 Welcome back, what a super first week back we have had. It has been so cold we have enjoyed exploring ice and all of the changes in our outdoor area because of the weather. We visited Forest School for the very first time this week, it was so much fun! We have also been to the hall for our first movement session. Lots of firsts this week but we have been amazing and have learnt so much!
