Nursery 

Ladybirds Logo@3x-100.jpg

 

Ladybird class is taught by Mrs Coles and Mrs Hanlan, they are supported by Mrs Shahi, Miss Holt and Mrs Danova.

The Nursery has an admission number of 45 children, with a maximum of 30 in each session.  Children attend either 5 full days (30 hours) or 2.5 days (15hours). Children are admitted to Nursery in the September after their third birthday.

​

The Nursery has a large classroom with an extensive outside area. Early years practitioners have a key role to play in working with parents to support their young children. To start this link we visit each child at home and meet their parents in preparation for Nursery. We enjoy keeping in close communication with parents throughout the year.

​

The curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage and makes full use of the excellent facilities. Play underpins all development and learning for young children and meeting the individual needs of all children lies at the heart of the EYFS. Through observations and team planning linked to a themed topic we deliver a wide range of learning experiences to develop the children’s social skills, independence, self-esteem and understanding of the seven areas of the curriculum. We pride ourselves on providing a secure and stimulating environment to develop the children’s skills and prepare them for starting school.

Easter Fun in Ladybird Class

The children have been having lots of fun taking part in a range of Easter activities in ladybird Class at the end of the Spring term.

Easter Bunny

The children were very excited to be visited by the Easter Bunny on the last Monday of term. They helped hunt for all the eggs around the nursery garden and put them into the Easter Bunny’s basket. At the end the Easter Bunny gave all the children 3 chocolate eggs to say well done for all their hard work. They even gave out special Easter stickers to the children who couldn’t have chocolate. Thank you to the Friends for all their hard work organising this fun event.

 

Counting eggs

The children have been making eggs out of play dough and putting them into the egg boxes. They then counted how many eggs they had in their egg box. They demonstrated super counting skills, well done children!

​

Egg and spoon races

The children had fun taking part in egg and spoon races outside. They demonstrated good running skills and tried very carefully to balance different sized eggs on their spoons. It was very tricky, but they showed real resilience, picking up the eggs when they fell onto the ground.

​

Church visit

We were very lucky to be invited to visit Emmanuel Church.  The children took part in a range of different activities including; listening to the Easter story, Easter colouring, playing with the Easter garden, going on an Easter egg hunt around the church and finding different objects around the church.

Miller's Ark Farm Visit

Miller's Ark Farm came to visit us at Nursery. Farmer Aidan brought all kinds of animals with him to show the children. He brought 2 donkeys; they were Mediterranean miniature donkeys. The mummy was called Licorice and the baby was called Betty. He brought a sheep and her lamb. He brought 5 goats called Werthers, Kiss, Skittles,Cornetto and Jelly. There were also 3 ducks and 3 hens. He also brought his 10 month old Husky called Koda.

The children all had a turn at stroking the animals. What a fantastic experience; the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
