Nursery 2025 - 2026

Welcome to Nursery

Thank you for visiting our Nursery page. 

We have two classes that work together across the Nursery Unit.

We have fun, we learn and we love to explore the world around us. We learn through a play based curriculum, that is both challenging and exciting.

The School Day

The school gate opens at 8.40am.  Please make sure you arrive on time to ensure your child is not missing out on valuable learning. We have lunch at 11:20am.Your child can bring a packed lunch or have a school dinner (to be paid for at the school office) which is eaten in the hall. The Nursery school day ends at 3.20pm. School gates will be open at 3.15pm. Please be prompt, as your children will be very excited to see you and tell you all about their day.

Home Learning 

From time to time we will send tasks home for you to collect resources, or find out about something we are learning about in class. We will send a note home so you know what we need you to do to help. For example, we might need your child to bring in a favourite book or collect some objects from the park.  

Clothes

At Nursery children love messy play! This means that your child may need to change into dry or clean clothes during the school day. Please can you make sure your child has a spare set of uniform in a labelled bag which will stay at school. As the weather in Manchester is renowned for being very wet, please ensure your child has a waterproof coat with a hood. This means we can still enjoy playing outside even when it’s raining!

 

If you have any questions please ask a member of the Nursery team who will be happy to help. We're here to support you and your child. 

 

Look out for Digital Displays around the school

"At Nursery we love to play. I feel all wriggly and happy”. 
"We can run, climb, build, paint, play with play dough, eat dinner in the home corner."
"There are lots of toys to play with. The teachers help us to learn when we play with them."

‘We create, We explore,


We care, We soar’
