What it's like

Staff provide children with a warm welcome in a safe atmosphere. Children self-register by placing their name tag on their coat peg on arrival and help themselves to breakfast from a self-service bar. This helps children to develop independence, and they settle quickly into the nursery routine. Children are confident in their own abilities and help others with tasks.

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are supported well. Staff work together to identify any concerns or delays in children's development as soon as possible. They liaise with and seek guidance from outside agencies, and a designated staff member completes assessments and devises support plans to promote children's learning and development.

Children use their imaginations in the outside area as they pretend to lock gates with giant keys. They enjoy the outside area, where they can build their boats from sponges, bamboo pieces, and sticks. They also enjoy being in the garden area with messy play or building homes for the dinosaurs. These areas are organised well and although outside they have a cover to protect children from the elements all year round.
