| Service Description: | The Old Vicarage School Nursery welcomes children from age 2 ½ plus, initially on a part time basis until they are 3 years old. It is open during term times, and additionally operates a weeks holiday club in July and at Christmas.
Childhood is not a rehearsal. You can be assured of close, personal attention at all times. Small classes and carefully selected, dedicated staff ensure that your child’s progress is consistent and often exceeds their age predicted ability.
The Nursery class is very much part of the Old Vicarage School family. The children wear the same uniform and play with older children, building upon the school’s nurturing environment. This inclusive setting helps to achieve a smooth transition to Reception.
The Nursery Classroom is spacious and bright, furnished with natural materials, plants and comfortable rugs and cushions. The children have a dedicated art room where they can make great masterpieces and enjoy messy play. Outside in the mature grounds you will find our very special ‘Gruffalo Woods’. Equipped with Wellies and wet weather clothing the children visit the woodland and mature gardens daily, partaking in a specialist gardening lesson every Thursday. All children benefit from visits by specialist Music, PE, French and Performing Arts teachers. There is a large astro turf for learning PE skills, including Hockey, Football, Netball and Athletics. There is a wooden play area for imaginative games with friends. |
