Nursery
Vision
Our Nursery reflects the nurturing and supportive learning environment of our current Early Years provision where your child will grow and thrive.
Our Busy Blog
The Nursery Team consists of Mrs Gilkes (Nursery Lead), Mrs Tortora , Mrs Iaciofano, Miss MacLeod and Lunchtime Supervisor Mrs Sharp.
All members of the team work hard to offer a nurturing and supportive learning environment for the children to thrive and grow. We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum with an emphasis on promoting the characteristics of effective learning. This approach fosters a love of learning and provides challenge linked closely to developmentally age appropriate experience. We strive to create an environment where the children feel confident to explore and discover new things. As a Nursery, we understand that all children are unique and understand the importance of following their individual interests.
Little Cloud
This week we have enjoyed reading the book Little Cloud by Eric Carle, our class artist. Whilst looking at different shaped clouds, we enjoyed taking part in a range of creative activities; cloud painting, where we used sponges to create our background and the end of a paintbrush to put patterns in the clouds. We played with shaving foam to see what cloud shapes we could make, and after this we had a go at making cloud dough. This consisted of cornflour and baby lotion. The children really enjoyed this as they all took part to mix and knead the dough.
