Parents report being extremely happy with the service the nursery provides.
Inclusion & environment
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are well supported. Staff provide parents with lots of information to help continue children's learning at home.
Older children have fun exploring a wide range of outdoor learning resources. They develop their physical skills as they learn to manoeuvre bicycles, build large structures, and use small trowels to dig in the mud kitchen. Children access the free-flow outdoor areas with confidence, and explore nature by searching for living things and watering vegetables they are growing.
