The Brilliance of Group Time – Nursery School

Welcome Time and Grouptime are a great start to the Nursery Day and an essential part of children’s learning. Thank you to everyone for arriving for Grouptime.

If you haven’t yet… please do come and talk to your child’s keyperson about your morning routines and potential barriers to arriving by 8.45am.

We are keen to learn more. Thank You.

Locking Bikes, Keeping Safe

Thank you for using buses, bikes and legs to get to Nursery!

Please be aware we have previously had a bike stolen from the front of the Centre.

We highly recommend locking up your bike, even if you are just “popping in”.
