Welcome to our Early Years Centre!

Hello!

We would like to officially welcome everyone back into the Gardenrose Early Years Centre. We have already had lots of new children start their first school year in our Nursery, as well as lots of boys and girls returning for their Pre-School year!

We are so pleased to have our returning ladies, Susan and Lee, managing the Red group and the Yellow group again this year. Our lovely, newly-appointed EYP Tracy is our leader of the Green Group, and Rhian, who we all know from last session and Forest School, is managing the Blue group this year. Nicola, our colleague from the Carrick Centre, has came to Gardenrose and is loving leading the Purple group. We also have the pleasure of welcoming our new EYP Esther, who will be assisting in the playrooms and developing great experiences for everyone.

For this year, Miss Grater will be our teacher in the Nursery. Miss Lee is now Acting Principal Teacher, which means she is very busy with management duties. She is very much still involved in our EYC and comes and helps us lots.

We have lots of super exciting things to come in our EYC this year. We are fast approaching Halloween, and so far we have been learning about the Jungle topic, while settling back into the Nursery routines after the Summer holidays.

Watch this space for Dates for the Diary, and exciting pictures and news of what we get up to!
