We are each unique and beautiful, but together we are a masterpiece!

Our Nursery!

The Brush Bus tooth brushing scheme is being launched in EYFS in order to increase exposure to fluoride among the 2–5-year-old children. Fluoride toothpaste is an effective method of reducing tooth decay and its benefits can be maximized by having additional time to brush your child’s teeth in school.

By introducing a time in the school day where children brush their teeth in school it is proven that that children are much more enthusiastic about having their teeth brushed at home (with an adult supervision). The aim is to improve children’s oral health and self-care habits and give every child the best start in life as decaying teeth can impact speech and language and future dental development.

Floor books

Each week we carry out a “Floor book” activity with your child.
These are scrap books that are individual to your child and highlight key achievements. Photographs of key events in class and exemplar pieces of work, mainly done independently by your child, are included in this book. Parents/carers and families are encouraged to send in pieces of work, certificates and photographs that can be included in the book to create a whole picture of the child. These books provide key evidence in support of their development milestones, which creates a record of attainment for your child.
These books are something we want the children to be proud of and take ownership of. They are also sent home at the end of the year for you to treasure forever.

Schemas

Understand what is behind your children’s play and help them by observing patterns of behaviour or “schemas”.

Schemas are patterns of behaviour that appear through children’s play.

Schemas are an important part of children’s development and knowing about these play urges can help you understand why children are so determined to do things in a certain way. For more information you can watch this short video.
