We have a spacious, secure outdoor learning environment where children can use large equipment and wheeled toys as well as benefit from structured play and learning activities. Indoors, the area is attractively laid out to stimulate young minds. The unit has the advantage that Nursery and School's Reception children can work and play alongside one another and access learning opportunities that are appropriate to their needs and interests.

Teaching in our nursery is based on the fundamental principal that children learn best through play and concrete experiences. We recognise that learning does not just happen at school and our Early Years curriculum builds on and extends the experiences children have had and do have at home. Our staff work closely with parents and carers to provide a safe and secure environment where children feel confident to explore and investigate through self-chosen and planned play. Children will take part in adult-led activities as well as creating their own play using our wide range of stimulating resources and extensive space. We aim to broaden children’s experience by extending their play and challenging them when they are ready.
