Due to Christina's background some parts of the nursery have a little bit of a school feel. The daily routine includes three adult lead experiences per day. These are high quality sessions which cater for your child's needs, their development and their interests.​ Due to our recent Ofsted inspection our adult lead time has been reduced to ensure free play is evident and we are encouraging learning through play throughout the day. Each child will be monitored and assessed daily through observations and tracking. Parents receive regular (usually daily) observations through to their email.

Play is now a massive part of the child's day however our staff use this time to model good language, sharing and caring and a good understanding of the world around them. Our children enjoy playing alongside and with staff as well as their peers. We offer a full range of activities that foster your child’s individual growth and personal interests. All adult lead activities are planned in accordance with the EYFS, the interests and development needs of each child and the Birth to 5 matters outcomes. Although tracking of outcomes is no longer seen as a requirement we still complete them here to ensure children are learning and gaps in development are addressed. We utilise the indoor and outdoor spaces to capture curiosity and growth. Each room has its own outdoor space, both of which have recently been developed. We feel parental involvement is key to achieving the maximum potential for your child and always aim to keep open communications.
