Information for Parents
Our school is at the heart of the community, and we want our pupils to value their local area as a special place to live that has lots of educational opportunities. We believe that taking children out into the community or inviting the community into school is an important and integral part of our curriculum. We believe that the curriculum is the whole learning experience, in which children, carers, staff and the community are all involved. We value what you have already achieved with your child and aim to build on these foundations. Parents are always welcome in nursery and we encourage families to become actively involved in school activities. We send regular newsletters home, post information about the current theme, curriculum and songsheets on Class Dojo and on the website. During the year you can help your child by being involved in:-
- Educational visits
- Celebrations
- Stay and Play sessions
- Reading stories with children
- Sharing your skills, interests or hobbies with us
- Sponsored events
- Helping in the garden
We welcome parents into school, to look at the displays of work on the walls and be part of their child's education. Any member of staff will be happy to tell you more if you are interested.
We want your child to be happy with us in the Nursery and for them to take advantage of the many learning opportunities we provide. If they have any anxiety that shows itself at home, or if outside school circumstances change, please let us know. The happiness, welfare and education of your child are our main concerns. If you need to speak to one of the staff we are available at the start and end of each Nursery session. If you need to talk for longer, for any reason, then please ask, at any time, and we can arrange a time that suits you.

Ways to help at home...
- Make time to talk and listen to your child
- Encourage them to observe, question, make choices and think
- Sing songs and nursery rhymes
- Encourage independence
- Share books, stories, writing and drawing activities
- Play games together
Please share your child's achievements at home with us by sending us a photo or video on Evidence me or Class Dojo. This could be going to the toilet by themselves, putting on their own coat, learning to swim, ride a bike, write their name or sleep in their own bed - anything at all that you are proud of and would like to share with us.
