Nursery
During the restricted school attendance announced on Monday 4th January 2021 St Nicholas CE First School Nursery remains open to all who wish to attend. Parents should complete the online form to inform us of their child's attendance on a weekly basis to allow us to plan to reduce unnecessary contacts. If parents have any difficulties then please do contact the school office.
At St Nicholas' we follow the EYFS curriculum in Nursery and Reception. This is a two year phase in which the building blocks for future education and social interaction are laid. As well as learning knowledge and skills through a mixture of play, child initiated and adult led activities and outdoor opportunities, children learn how to learn. Teachers within our Nursery and Reception setting assess the child's characteristics as a learner. The criteria for this can be seen in the attached document below.
To see what is taught throughout the two years in Nursery and Reception please see the long term curriculum here.
