Nursery information
Starting nursery is the beginning of your child's journey in school. It's our aim to make sure that they're happy and settled and develop a love of learning that will carry them throughout their entire lives.
At Lady Elizabeth Hastings C of E Primary School, we will focus strongly on developing the children's communication and language skills, their physical skills and their personal, social and emotional skills. These are called the prime areas of development and we believe that these skills are essential in order for other learning and development to take place.
We will provide an inclusive, fun and safe environment for our children to begin their school journey. We offer both inside and outdoor space where children have he opportunity to enhance their learning through a wide range of provision. During a typical day, the children will also partake in small group sessions and phonics through the Read, Write, Inc programme.
We offer both full time and part time places and have three intakes of new starters; one in September, one in January and again in April.
We kindly welcome you to come and visit our school and are happy to answer any questions you may have.
