Springfield Primary School Nursery Class
Last updated: 03/10/2023
At Springfield we have a Nursery class (Owlets) that takes children from the term after their 3rd birthday. Wherever possible we aim to admit children 3 times a year (September, January and April) but this is dependent on numbers.
The class is within our foundation stage area of the school with 2 Reception classes (Tawny and Snowy Owls classes).
We provide a safe, secure, enriching environment encompassing a varied mix of teacher led and child-initiated learning throughout the day. children are encouraged to develop their own interests through exploration, meeting challenges and earning together. Working in close partnership with parents, new experiences and opportunities are provided by our skilled and experienced foundation team.
Children have access to exciting outside areas including our vast school grounds. All children in nursery and reception take part in weekly Forest School activities.
We run morning sessions from 8.45 to 11.45am and afternoon sessions from 12.15 – 3.15 pm. We also provide the 30- hour extended child care provision for parents who are both working and qualify for this benefit. Children attending nursery sessions are also entitled to attend the school’s wrap around care provision for which there is an additional charge – details included below. Morning sessions are from 8.00 – 8.45am and after school from 3.15 – 6pm.
If parents do not receive the 30 hours benefit but wish to receive more than 15 hours, we can usually accommodate this but charge £15 per 3 hour session.
