| St
Michael's School Nursery
was set up in September 1992. The continuity between Nursery and Reception years is believed to be important. In order to achieve this continuity we will normally, only give places in the Nursery to those children who intend to further their education in the main school. |
Hours
are by arrangement following discussion. Children usually attend for mornings
only, progressing to five mornings and two afternoons in their final two terms.
Morning Hours:8.30 am to 12.30 pm.
There is an optional extra for a lunch hour from 12.30 pm to 1.30 pm for working parents.
St Michael's School has a Nursery located in a purpose-built area next to the Reception year, forming an Early Years Unit. The Nursery has its own secure garden and outdoor play area.
The
Nursery Department enjoys the use of other school facilities such as the swimming
pool, gymnasium and studio. Whilst the nursery is a safe and separate entity, the children
have the opportunity to meet other staff and be involved in the life of the
main school.
The
Nursery aims to provide a broad and balanced curriculum in which individual
need will be identified and promoted.
No
formal uniform is necessary, but children will be required to wear an apron to
protect their clothes.
Children
will be admitted at the start of the Michaelmas, Lent and Trinity Terms, but
not normally before their third birthday.
