Early Years

Foundation Stage Lead: Mr Croft

"Life is a journey to be experienced, not a problem to be solved." - Winnie the Pooh

Children in the early years, including in the Nursery Year, get off to a flying start. They listen carefully to adults’ instructions.

Children enjoy a well-thought-out curriculum that meets their learning needs. As a result, children are well prepared to embrace the demands of the key stage 1 curriculum.
