We are working hard to become a paperless school so please check regularly for updates.

Our Early Years Foundation Stage Unit provides a fun and exciting learning environment for our nursery and reception children.

We have three indoor classrooms and an outdoor area for the children to explore and learn through a play based curriculum.

The children are collected from the playground at 8:45 and the gates are closed at 8:55 to allow the school day to start.

The nursery children attend on a morning from 8:55 to 11:55. 

The reception children are here for the whole school day, 8:55 to 3:15.
