Our Class

There are two nursery sessions each day, morning and afternoon as follows:
Morning session     8.30am – 11.30am
Afternoon session 12.15pm – 3.15pm

Children can access 5 morning sessions, 5 afternoon session, beginning of the week (all day Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday morning), end of the week (Wednesday afternoon, all day Thursday & Friday) and 30 hours (if parents have a eligibility code)

30 hour places are available and run over four and a half days.  Parents are given the opportunity to pay for wrap around sessions (where available) at a cost of £20 per session.

Beginning of the week & end of the week sessions cost £10 per week.

When children arrive they hang their coat on their peg and find their name to self register.   

Rewards

Children collect 'dojo' points for positive behaviour and when they achieve 10 points, they receive a sticker in exchange for their points.

'Star of the Week' is awarded to a child that has tried hard in all aspects of school, including being kind to others, good work, following instructions.  Our 'Star of the Week' also gets to take home one of our travelling teddies - Charlie Bear and Baby Bear.  The children love taking our travelling teddies home for the weekend and sharing their adventures with their friends

Wonderful Weather

It is important for all children to wear sensible footwear and coat suitable for the weather. We encourage the children to bring their own wellington boots to use outside, which we store in school. When children are this age they are still learning to dress and undress independently, so we ask for them to wear shoes with velcro fastenings so they are easy to take off and put on. Please remember to name all clothing and footwear.

Mini Church

Each half term the children are invited to join in with our Mini Church session where they can take part in a short church service at St. Oswald's Church. Parents are warmly invited to join in with our service.

Services begin at 9.15am.
