Our Nursery has capacity for up to 120 pupils, 60 in each morning or afternoon session. We operate a two year curriculum cycle as some of our children enter Nursery after their third birthday and may remain for over three terms.
During Nursery we introduce children to phase one phonics and use Letters and Sounds as our principle scheme.
During this year we continue to build on the children’s phonetic knowledge and also introduce Bug Club as our main reading scheme. Each child has an individual logon to the Bug Club website where they can access e-versions of their reading book.
We offer a number of parental workshops throughout the year on understanding the Early Years curriculum and supporting your child with early reading or maths.
In Year One each classroom has an individual outdoor area which is utilised to provide a smooth transition from Reception for the children. The emphasis remains on active learning whether indoor or out as the children learn through a cross-curricular approach. This year we studied ‘Who lives in Windsor Castle?’ and when the children visited the castle they were able to identify some of the key features!
We continue the focus on engaging and active learning throughout Year Two and also offer a number of parental meetings and workshops. These keep parents informed of the latest Government requirements and provide top tips to keep your child motivated. We continue reading with Bug Club and real books (colour coded to ensure suitability ) which give the children exposure to new experiences they may not otherwise encounter.
Teaching in the Nursery is outstanding. Children are provided with a rich, varied and exciting range of activities and are constantly encouraged to speak, ask questions and repeat new words.
" From the outset of their education journey at nursery, you made my children feel very much at home."
