Nursery 2019 - 2020

Welcome to our Nursery page!

In Nursery we aim to provide a welcoming. secure and happy environment where children can explore and become independent learners. We want all children to develop in confidence and reach their potential. We encourage children to develop their language skills, mathematical thinking, to use their imagination and be creative. We also provide daily opportunities to take part in physical and outdoor play and help children to discover the world around them.

The Nursery is split into four groups. Each group is lead by a class teacher and one or two teaching assistants.

Bee Group - Mrs Powell, Miss Berry and Ms Pettit (Teach Manchester student teacher)

Dragonfly Group - Mrs Myers, Ms Karolina and Ms Darwent

Butterfly Group - Mrs Carter-Penney, Mrs Felton and Mrs Roberts

Ladybird Group - Mrs Doogan, Mrs Hussain and Ms Darwent

We send out a Learning letter regularly. This informs you of what we are learning and doing in the following weeks. We include some ideas of activities that you can do with your child to support their learning.

In the Spring and Summer terms, we have a lending library to encourage children to develop a love of reading. This helps to get them into the habit of taking and returning books, ready for reception. The Nursery have weekly music lessons and dough disco sessions.
