Nursery times are:
Morning Nursery 9.00am - 11.30am
Afternoon Nursery 12.45pm - 3.15pm
We believe that an early and
well structured start to a child’s education is a good grounding. Our
Nursery building and play area is attached to the main building but it
is self contained. This enables us to provide a secure environment that
is bright and stimulating for the children when they first enter the
Nursery. When the children are at ease in this situation, they are
gradually introduced to the rest of the school.
By the time
pupils are ready to transfer to the main school they are joining in
assemblies and using the hall for PE, dance and any other special
activities.
Before starting Nursery, children and parents are
invited to visit the school and are usually also visited at home by the
Nursery staff.
Each September there is an intake of 26 children per am/pm session into our nursery.
Children
generally start nursery at the beginning of the academic year in which
they are four. From January 2006, children who have their third
birthday during the previous autumn term may be offered a nursery place
if there are spaces available. Priority is still given to children who
are already four years old. If there are still nursery places for the
summer term then children who have had their third birthday during the
spring term may be offered a place. In effect, the nursery class could
have 3 intakes of children during each academic year. A letter offering
a place in the nursery class is sent to the parents or carers during
the term prior to them starting. This includes an offer for them to
receive a home visit by the teacher and nursery nurse and the details
of a visiting day when parents may bring their child to visit the
nursery.
