What Our Parents Say…
—
The nursery has been designed to the highest standards in safety and security, offering an authorised door entry system and CCTV monitoring, while still retaining a homely, caring environment in which each individual child is encouraged to develop and thrive socially and intellectually.
The Forest schools concept originated in Scandinavia in the 1950s. It is an inspirational process that encourages learners to develop confidence and self-esteem through hands-on, outdoor learning experiences in a woodland, forest or natural environment.
This learning environment helps children to explore the natural world by doing, developing their natural skills in problem-solving, social interaction, risk-taking in a safe environment, thinking and general wellbeing to last them a lifetime.
Research in the early year’s sector shows the positive impact that these types of schools have on young children’s development. Our Forest school activities are led by a Forest School Qualified Teacher with several years’ experience working with children.
Little ones spend real time outdoors with our qualified Forest School teacher, splashing in puddles, building dens and exploring nature in every season. It’s where confidence, curiosity and a love of the outdoors begin, right from the early years.
We’re a family run, medium sized nursery, so your child is known by name and never lost in a big group. Our caring team works alongside you as partners, and daily updates on the Tapestry app mean you never miss a moment of their day.
We’re open 7:30am to 6:30pm, 51 weeks a year, with funded childcare hours welcome and a dedicated parking area for easy drop offs. Freshly prepared, healthy meals are part of every day too, from a nursery with a 5 star food hygiene rating.
