We are reading

We all know that reading for pleasure is both an enjoyable and rewarding experience as well as a key tool for future learning. Day in day out, we see the rapid progress made by those children who read often and want to say a big thank you to all the mums, dads and carers who support with this.

    ‘The curriculum across the whole nursery is extraordinarily well targeted to meet the needs of the children attending.’
