We had “newbies” join our nursery family in April.ย This sparked unwavering interest and learning in the minibeasts that could be found around our garden.
Have a look at our learning below.

As part of our Transition to School activities we will be offering a 4 week block of Going to School PEEP.
PEEP is an interactive parent and child group that can give parents/carers tools to support their child in early learning experiences. These groups will guide you through activities and experiences that will support your childโs development in early language and vocabulary skills,ย literacy and writing skills, developing mathematical knowledge and number sense, as well as routines and independence for joining Primary 1.
These groups will be held virtually through Skype and therefore a device that is internet enabled would be required.
You can sign up to attend following the links below.
Child initiated learning at its best.ย We’ve had lots of fun with our Easter Bonnet Parade.
There might not be a Fab Friday PEEP Group this week but you can still enjoy learning together through our Virtual PEEP Playroom.
