This is the little gate you will come through to enter the nursery playground and line up ready to go into your classroom.
This is the other side of the playground. You can see the doors that you will go through to enter your classroom. Look at some of the toys you will get to play with!
A Typical Day in Nursery:
As soon as the children arrive, they can explore the activities provided whilst the register is completed. They are encouraged to put their belongings in their designated locker, independently and their drinks bottle and snack in the designated area.
There is a short whole class session learning nursery rhymes, sharing a traditional tale or completing a phonics session then child-initiated and adult-led activities are completed.
Story, singing or reviewing our learning

There is a short whole class session which is topic based. The children are then encouraged to take part in child-initiated or adult-led activities.

Above are some pictures of our nursery. You can see the outside area, where there are lots of activities you can enjoy. Inside, there is a picture of the toilets where we have little toilets especially for little people! Inside, we have a carpet space where you will take part in group activities.

Here are some children taking part in a group activity using our smart board. You can see in one of the photos, that Miss Cooper is holding a puppet. We have several puppets, including; Non-negotiable Ned, Superpower Sam, Teamwork Tallulah and Communicating Claude. All the children have an introduction to our puppets and aim to be like them. If they have taken part in a group activity and been fantastic at working as part of a team, Mrs Pile may say that you have been great at being a 'Teamwork Tallulah' today.
There is also a 'Star of the Week' which the children in the rest of the school also work towards. Each week, a different child will receive a certificate showing that they have been awarded 'Star of the Week' and a reason why they have been chosen.
