Inspector highlights
Inclusion & environment
Provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is exemplary. Managers and staff work tirelessly to secure additional funding and specialist support, developing tailored communication strategies and working closely with families to ensure the highest levels of support.
Children love to climb and learn how to navigate small risks around their spacious outdoor area. They paint walls with water and rollers and explore many real tools to construct and create as they play. Children have outstanding opportunities to explore the natural world, building their own pond and watching tadpoles, and going on bug hunts.
Provision for children who speak English as an additional language is exemplary. Managers and staff work tirelessly to secure additional funding and specialist support, developing tailored communication strategies to ensure children learn English quickly and close any gaps in their learning.
Not the ideal setting for children. Multiple people seem to be leaving or kicked out of the nursery as they don't like to be challenged by parents. Even when parents know their children better.
Read on GoogleA really welcoming, fun, friendly and relaxed environment to share your faith in God. My wife & I attend the 10:45 family service and am always welcomed with a lovely smile and a coffee! The songs are modern and the sermons easy to follow and really entertaining which we love. There's a child and youth club during the service so everyone can enjoy their Christian journey. I'd like to extend an invitation for everyone to come along - you'll love it!
Read on GoogleAttended a children's birthday party in the upstairs function spaces. Was a bit hot up there owing to being summer, but was a perfect space to hold a party with separate room for food and another for games and entertainer. Free on site parking was a bonus.
