## About this day nursery

Honeypot Nursery, situated at the Highbury Campus of City of Portsmouth College, offers a nurturing and stimulating environment for children from birth up to school age. With 54 available places, the nursery operates 50 weeks a year, Monday to Friday, from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm.

The facility features three distinct, brightly decorated rooms tailored to the developmental needs of different age groups: "Baby Bees" for infants aged 2-20 months, "Honey Bees" for toddlers aged 20-33 months, and "Busy Bees" for pre-schoolers aged 33-47 months. The curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage framework, focusing on play-based learning and exploring various engaging activities like painting, music, and sensory play.

Independence is encouraged, especially in the pre-school room, to prepare children for their transition to school. Honeypot Nursery works closely with parents to ensure individual needs are met and provides opportunities for children to learn about different cultures.

The nursery was rated "Good" by Ofsted in June 2024, highlighting the warm and attentive care provided by its experienced staff.

Our ethos
