Nursery
Hello and welcome to Nursery,
My name is Mrs. Hurley and I am ably supported by Mrs. Parkinson, and Mrs McNicholas.
In our Nursery we follow the Early Years Framework to plan learning activities for your child to develop them in Literacy, Communication and Language, Mathematics, Personal and Social Development, Physical Development and in Knowledge and Understanding of the World.
We are very excited to be supporting your child in their journey of learning in Nursery
We have had a busy few weeks in nursery! Welcome to our new starters. This term we are learning about space and around the world.
We focus on a different topic each half term providing a stimulating, vibrant, fun and caring environment for each child to grow, develop confidence and reach their full potential.
We encourage independence, speech, social skills and self regulation. See below for ways to support your child develop these skills.
