Thrive Weston Village

About this day nursery

Thrive Weston Village is a nursery committed to providing high-quality early years care and education within a stimulating and nurturing environment. The nursery offers a curriculum that adheres to the Statutory Framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage, emphasising hands-on learning, child-led activities, and extensive use of both indoor and outdoor resources.

Children are encouraged to develop self-confidence through activities like Forest School sessions in woodland gardens and outdoor classrooms, promoting a connection with nature. Wellbeing is a core focus, incorporating physical, mental, and emotional development into daily life, with some nurseries even offering mini-farms or animal visits.

The nursery actively supports children's physical development through a curriculum that ensures at least three hours of physical activity daily, led by Physical Development Champions. They also foster creativity and expression through music, dance, and creative arts, alongside focused language and story time sessions to support speech and comprehension.

Healthy eating habits are promoted through nutritious meals and snacks, and children are encouraged to participate in cooking and baking activities. Parental engagement is highly valued, facilitated by regular newsletters, parent evenings, and e-learning journals accessible via the ParentZone app, which allows parents to track their child’s daily activities and developmental progress.

The nursery aims to prepare children for school through engaging learning experiences and celebrates their transition with graduation ceremonies.
