Inclusion & environment
The special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) works closely with parents and external professionals to plan precise support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The SENCo supports staff to monitor the progress of children with SEND, ensuring children with SEND achieve well and continue to meet their next steps in learning.
Children do not let the weather deter them and eagerly put on their puddle suits and wellington boots to play in the rain. Staff consider the weather and any hazards when deciding to take children to play outside, and monitor ultraviolet rays to protect children with sun cream.
Absolutely amazing nursery. The staff are so lovely and accommodating. We relocated to the area and was recommended the nursery via a neighbour. I have twin boys who have attended 3 other settings which included a forest school and the boys have been most happiest here. The outside space is wonderful and they always have something fun and exciting for the children planned. The environment is really warm and friendly. I would highly recommend Little People’s Farsley to anyone considering the setting. I am so impressed and thrilled we went with them in the end.

Really happy we chose this nursery. All the staff are super friendly and my little one loves making the most of all the different activities/things to play with! I always get an overview of his day when I pick him up, which is really lovely and helpful to hear. Thank you to the team!

My little boy attends the Farfield Funclub only in the school holidays and absolutely loves it! He attends another school out of the area and looks forward to coming, we receive the News letter in advance and he gets so excited about the activities. He brings his bike with him daily and plays football with his friends, he always comes out with plenty of stories about his day.

My little one attended nursery here from just before the age of 2 until just after the age of 4. They formed great relationships with the staff, who are all kind, supportive and professional and in particular with their assigned key workers - and made friends with the little ones too. A fantastic nursery setting!
