Just Playing?

A high quality nursery education is about much more than colours and shapes, numbers and letters.  It's about learning to be independent, confident, strong and curious.

It's about developing children's natural joy and wonder at the world they live in.

It's about having a positive attitude, forming positive relationships and believing in yourself.  If children can learn  to "have a go", learn from mistakes and try again, they will succeed in their future learning.

Young children learn by doing things for themselves, by exploring and investigating, watching and listening, talking and discussing, creating and communicating - in other words - playing.

Play is children's work and playing hard is very tiring!  Your children may be really exhausted and perhaps a bit grumpy when they come home - please make allowances. At the old school house nursery we PLAY!
