Children come into the Nursery with many different experiences. The Nursery Team will build and develop these experiences in partnership with you.<\/p>\n
As part of our transition programme you and your child are invited to\u00a0 visit the nursery and school prior to your child\u2019s start date. You will meet the staff who will answer any questions you may have.<\/p>\n
Settling your child into nursery may take just one day or it might take several weeks. The Nursery Team will work closely with you to ensure your child\u2019s transition is as easy as possible.<\/p>\n
Young children learn very naturally through play.\u00a0 Through play, your child will cover the Nursery Curriculum: Health and Wellbeing, Literacy and English, Maths and Numeracy, Expressive Arts, Science, Social Subjects, Technologies and Religious and Moral Education. We will extend your child\u2019s learning through observing, interaction and questioning and develop appropriate next steps.<\/p>\n
Daily conversations with nursery staff will keep you informed and your child\u2019s PLJ (Personal Learning Journey) will be kept updated of their achievements and areas for support.\u00a0 The PLJ\u2019s are there for you to read at you own convenience and can be taken home throughout the year so that you can look at it together.\u00a0 You will also have organised progress meetings with your child\u2019s Key Worker.<\/p>\n
We encourage independence so clothing and footwear that is easy to fasten and manage is recommended.\u00a0 Nursery activities can be messy\u00a0 so not their best clothes!\u00a0 Children change from outdoor shoes to gym shoes in the Nursery which are kept at Nursery and they will need wellingtons which again can be left at Nursery.\u00a0 A spare set of named clothes is essential and should be returned as soon as possible if used.<\/p>\n
Nursery staff will meet you at the gate in the mornings, please let them know if anyone other than the usual person will be collecting your child. Children should be collected from the main nursery door.<\/p>\n
The children are involved in planning healthy snacks which always include fresh fruit, milk and water. There is no need to bring in an additional snack. Please ensure if brining a water bottle it only contains water.<\/p>\n
All nursery children are entitled to a free school lunch and they can make their selection when dropped off each morning. We promote healthy eating at nursery therefore if your child is bringing a packed lunch we ask that it is as healthy as possible.<\/p>\n
As part of enrolling your child at Falkland Nursery you will be asked to complete forms regarding local outings, photographs, local press and sun protection.<\/p>\n
A termly contribution of\u00a0 \u00a31.50 \/ week is requested. This can be paid in full at the start of each term or on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
