Welcome to Nursery 2019/20
We have had a brilliant start to the Spring term and are really pleased with how well the children have settled and are so enthusiastic.
The children are enjoying learning through play and are having lots of fun with their teachers Mrs Spillman, Miss Watts and Mrs Wright.
Learning is planned through exciting topics. This half term we are learning about food. We have been talking and learning about where food comes from, healthy and unhealthy foods and we will be cooking and tasting different foods.
The children come into school every morning eager to learn and are very busy with lots of different activities. Every day we play games, read stories and sing songs.
Learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom and we are very lucky to have a lovely outdoor area where we love to explore, climb and build.
Keep checking the web page to see our exciting news, photographs and amazing learning.

Welcome to Nursery 2019
We have had a brilliant start to the Summer term and really pleased how well the children have settled back and are so enthusiastic.
The children are enjoying learning through play and are having lots of fun with their teachers Mrs Spillman and Miss Williams. Learning is planned through exciting topics. This half term we are thinking and learning about growing. We have been growing plants, flowers and vegetables and learning about the lifecycle of humans and animals.
The children come into school every morning eager to learn and are very busy with lots of different activities. Every day we play games, read stories and sing songs.
Learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom and we are very lucky to have a lovely outdoor area where we love to explore, climb and build.
