Next Generation Day Nursery

We have worked to create a nurturing and stimulating environment, with snuggly areas for times when we want to just sit and read a book or chill out, an active area with steps and slide for some physical fun along with carefully selected resources to compliment children's natural instinct to learn. Our sensory room works to enhance the babies senses and is very popular with the babies. Each day we visit the garden to get some fresh air and on occasions we go for walks to see our local environment. We have weekly Sing and Sign sessions and some fun sessions with Mini Wave too.

The maximum capacity is for 12 children each day.  

Our Toddler Room is where our babies transition into toddlers, where the opportunity for awe and wonder is explored further in a larger but still nurturing play space. In this room we have created some smaller areas, where children  move between with support from staff.  This room has lots of daily fun, creative and messy play opportunities giving children the skills for future learning.  Throughout the Nursery, we are supporting children's individual learning by extending their knowledge, giving them an introduction into new opportunities and experiences to learn. Toddlers also have weekly sessions with our local partners Sing and Sign, KinderGarden and Mini Wave.

From here they move into the Pre-School room the year before they start Reception and are ready to embark on our Ready for Reception Transition year of activities. 

The maximum capacity is for 16 children each day.  

In our Pre-school room learning is steered into supporting the children's transitions into school in September.  We work with our Pre-Schoolers developing and securing their confidence in their own abilities, self-care and independence, readiness for school, ability to share, celebrate successes of others, team work (sounds great yes?..... we also have a mini workshop for parents too). 

 Pre School also has their own 'free-flow' area open all day for indoor/outdoor learning.

Pre-School also has weekly sessions with our local partners; PhonicsStars, Bexley school of cookery and Kindergarden - it's a fun packed week - who wouldn't want to join in?

The maximum capacity is for 16 children each day.  

To us, our outdoor learning is as crucial as our indoor learning.  We value the way children learn differently in different environments, we use the garden area to its maximum, creating valuable learning opportunities for all of the children in the Nursery daily.  In addition to garden time, our Pre Schoolers also have their own mini 'free-flow' area which is adjacent to their room and open all day for indoor/outdoor learning and play opportunities. We often take the children on local walks around our Nursery.
