Our nursery provides a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can develop confidence, independence, and a love of learning from an early age.
Starting nursery is an exciting milestone for children and parents alike. We aim to make the transition as smooth and positive as possible. Our team will work closely with you to help your child settle in and feel secure in their new environment.
Children attending our nursery are encouraged to wear a school uniform to help them feel part of the school community. We recommend simple, comfortable clothing and easy-to-manage footwear to support independence. A spare set of clothes should be kept on your child’s peg in case a change is needed. Please visit our uniform page to find out more.
"Children develop quickly in the early years and early years practitioners aim to do all they can to help children have the best possible start in life. Children have a right, spelled out in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, to provision which enables them to develop their personalities, talents, and abilities, irrespective of ethnicity, culture or religion, home language, family background, learning difficulties, disabilities or gender." EYFS 2012
At Noel Park Nursery, our aim is to understand and support each individual child's potential as they grow and develop. In order to do this, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) 2012. The Foundation Stage was introduced as a distinct phase of education for children aged between 3 ‐ 5 years in September 2000 and use of the Curriculum Guidance became statutory in March 2002. From September 2008, this became known as the Early Years Foundation Stage and this has set the standards for learning, development and care for children from birth to 5 years.
The ways in which your child engages with other people and their environment through playing and exploring, active learning and creating and thinking critically, underpins learning and development across all areas and supports your child to remain an effective and motivated learner.
The EYFS is built around these prime areas of learning:
During each session, the children will experience some adult led focused teaching activities and will also take part in independent learning activities. Teachers observe children as they act and interact in their play and use information from those observations to plan exciting activities for the children to experience.
At Lift Noel Park Nursery we aim to make the nursery a safe and secure place for the children, parent/carers, staff and any Visitors who may enter the setting. We aim to make all the children, parent/carers and staff aware of health and safety issues to minimise the hazards and risks to enable them to thrive in a safe and healthy environment.
Gates are always closed and locked before children enter the garden for outdoor play. Two members of staff are always present at dismissal time with four members of staff welcoming children into the settling.
Children are able to independently help themselves to milk, water, fruit and crackers from the snack table which is available all day.
Full time children can choose to have packed lunch from home or have our freshly prepared and cooked on the premises by our trained Cook using a 3 weekly cycle and seasonal menus. This can be seen with request.
The team respects that you, the parent, have the greatest knowledge of your child. The staff will endeavour to carry out your wishes at all times although you are asked to respect the policies and procedures we are regulated by. We promote a two‐way partnership between parents and carer that establishes good home/nursery links.
Our nursery offers flexible sessions to suit your family’s needs, breakfast club and after school provision are availiable on the school premises:
We accept 15-hour and 30-hour government funding and offer additional paid sessions where needed. Please contact the school office for further details about availability and fees.
