A Message from the Headteacher
The Nursery and Reception classes together make up the Foundation Stage, which we consider to be a facility that
enhances the whole school community.
The high quality Early Years education we provide ensures your child develops a solid foundation for their future learning.
The relationships and partnerships forged with you as parents, establishes a pattern that is continued throughout the school.
These links between home and school are vital in enriching and supporting your child's learning.
We look forward to a long and rewarding relationship between you and the school.
Clive Riches Headteacher

The children follow the Foundation Stage curriculum, which is divided into six areas of learning:

The Nursery and Reception classrooms are carefully planned to offer many different, high quality activities and first hand experiences, within a happy and secure environment.
