All children flourish in an exciting, safe, welcoming and inclusive environment.
The high-quality outdoor provision and the creative opportunities that are offered through your artist in residence ensure that children explore, investigate and learn about the natural world as well as representing their learning through art and movement.
Keeping children safe has the highest priority and this is embedded within the culture of the nursery.
