Nursery
Our Nursery looks after a maximum of 28 children each day between the hours of 8:00am and 5:30pm, 51 weeks a year. The Nursery is split into two age groups, the 'Rockets' (the 2-3 year olds) and the 'Stars' (the 3-4 year olds), with each enjoying their own special learning and play areas. Attendance can be sessional, term time only or fulltime.
We work in partnership with our parents and will always talk over any queries you might have. Our keyworkers system provides a member of staff who will have a particular interest in your child's development. Regular parent consultation meetings keep you up-to-date with your child's progress.
