Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff work well with other settings to arrange the sharing of important information about all children and their differing needs. For example, they share support plans for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Outdoor space Children take pride as they tend to their home-grown plants in the garden area. They are encouraged to take care of any 'minibeasts' found, and staff extend learning to support their understanding of living things. Leaders have ambitious plans to extend the outdoor area, which will further support children's physical development and spatial awareness. ## Parent Reviews of Chatter Tots Sittingbourne 5.0 (1) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocJ-z-7s4p0LecdUziW-SWAb4Z0t7V_qd1ojjtDIh9sduC42Bg=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Megan a year ago My daughter has been going to this nursery since January 2024 and I'm so glad I picked this nursery for her!!
