Welcome to St. Anthony's Nursery School!
St. Anthony's Nursery opened in January 1981 and
currently offers 52 full time places each year to the majority
of children in their immediate pre-school year i.e. 3-4 year
olds.
The children have the choice at midday to eat their own
packed lunch or a cooked meal which comes from the nearby
Primary School canteen.
The Nursery Staff are highly experienced and motivated
- there are 2 teachers and 2 nursery assistants. The caretaker,
dining attendant and secretary are behind the scenes ensuring
that our Nursery is safe, clean and efficient. From time to
time part-time staff are employed to provide extra adult
support for children with a variety of differing needs.
There are 2 playrooms each with their own bathroom
facilities and quiet room areas. Running along both playrooms we
have a we have a newly acquired enclosed verandah for all year
round physical play.
Outdoor accommodation consists of a large tarmac area,
garden with flowerbeds, play house and fort.
We believe in a working partnership with parents and we strive to share this responsibility within a
positive and safe environment whereby the children
always come first. |
