The nursery is situated in the original lodge at the entrance to the grounds of the main school but within its own garden, providing a secure, stimulating and caring environment for children between the ages of two and a half and 4 by well-qualified and experienced staff.Sessions are structured, with times set for activities and group projects, free play and outdoor play. We expect the children to develop early learning skills: pre-reading involving visual and aural discrimination, hand and eye co-ordination and simple comprehension of past and present. Special learning apparatus and computer programmes are available to help develop early mathematical skills such as counting, sorting and recognition of sizes and shapes. Television, video and computers are used where appropriate to support learning activities. The children are given many opportunities to enjoy painting and drawing, activities with sand and water, and cooking.
Social skills such as learning to co-operate and play in a new environment are also encouraged. We work to develop each child’s confidence and an understanding of sharing and fair play. The nursery provides a wonderful stepping stone up into Reception at the age of 4 when the children move with confidence into an already familiar environment.
