The Nursery has a parent representative group. The group meets quarterly to discuss service delivery and forthcoming events and developments. We are like no other nursery, we are unique!

The Nursery has a calendar of events that are aimed at encouraging children to dress up and contribute to celebrations throughout the year.
On-going formative assessment is at the heart of effective early years practice. As practitioners we observe children as they play, interact and engage through the daily activities and planned group times. Through these observations we can then assess the children through the Early Years Foundation Stage areas of learning to identify where the child may be in their developmental pathway.
