Employer Description:
You will find us in the beautiful village of Whalton, just a 10-minute drive from both Morpeth and Ponteland. Our neighbours are Whalton Church of England Aided Primary School, with whom we share a spacious playing field and yard. We're a small setting with many of our wraparound children coming from the school. At PAWS we are passionate about outdoor learning. Outdoors we have breathtaking views, big open spaces and lots of nature to explore. Our green spaces are a priceless learning resource and so we use them to great effect. We introduce environmental concepts early – so it becomes second nature to take care of nature. In our raised bed we can grow our own veg and learn where our food comes from. Our outdoor classroom includes bird feeders, nests and bug hotels and we keep an eye on little visitors with our binoculars. We're Forest School Accredited spending as much time as possible learning outdoors and in our private woodland area a short walk away.
Working Hours :
Open Monday to Friday with wraparound starting at 07:30 and after school clubs finishing at 17:30. Our Preschool sessions start at 09:00 and typically finish at 15:00. We're flexible and happy to discuss hours, full or part time.
