Employer Description:
Nestled in the beautiful grounds of KES Preparatory School is their bespoke Nursery setting. The Nursery is a magical and special place, filled with joy and fun. The youngest children play, learn and develop in well-resourced indoor areas which flow out to a covered outdoor area. These areas enable the children to explore and discover in their preferred environment. Many of their children are adventurous and prefer to learn outdoors. Therefore, they ensure there are many opportunities to learn and develop outside of the classroom, in the garden, at the farm, at Forest School or in Little Meadow. Little Meadow, the sustainably built Meadow Lodge, provides a hide to watch birds and other wildlife and offers a space to reflect. This wild space at the bottom of their garden, surrounded by glorious countryside, gives their children the opportunity to immerse themselves in nature and wildlife, grow vegetables and harvest apples from the orchard. Little Meadow is also surrounded by the farm. Their children love to visit the ponies, pigs, goats and chickens, learning to feed and care for them.
