Warrington Road and Ditton Nursery schools are now federated under the title "Aspiring Foundations Federated Nursery Schools" Nursery sessions run for 3 or 6 hours, depending on your child entitlement to the 30 hour offer. During this time the children experience a range of opportunities.
As you arrive with your child you are welcomed to come into nursery and help them find their name card for self registration. The sessions follow a daily routine which include small group time, adult directed and child led activites.
During the sessions the children have the opportunity to explore the many areas of provision within the nursery, both inside and out, with the support of our highly skilled and experienced teachers and early years practitioners.
Ongoing observations of all children enable the staff to plan a range of activities, experiences and resources to ensure all children continue to learn in the context of their individual interests and levels of development.
