A warm welcome from all of the Nursery team.
A typical day in Nursery will consist of; registration/good morning, a short focussed activity (maths or phonics), choosing time indoors and outdoors, snack time and story/singing.
Please remember to…
- Name all of your child’s clothes, shoes and any items that they bring into Nursey.
- Drop off and collect your child on time.
- Encourage your child to look in their tray for pictures, letters, jumpers and models.
- Hand lunch time cover money in every Monday in a named envelope (30 hour children).
- Resist the temptation to do everything for your child and encourage them to try and do it for themselves. E.G. dressing and toileting.
- Remember that no worry is too small, if you are concerned about your child please let us know so that we can help.
