Welcome to Newham Bridge Primary School Nursery and welcome to our new, refurnished nursery.
Nursery Staff Team Mrs Hilton – Nursery teacher Mrs Bell – Nursery Support The nursery team recognise the importance of giving our children the best start to their education and place great value on the development of our children as individuals. Our new nursery has been designed to help the needs of our children and support each individual to achieve their full, unique potential. We believe in creating a strong partnership with parents and carers, warm and positive relationships with staff and children and in establishing consistent routines across EYFS.
EYFS Curriculum
Your child will learn through a wide variety of experiences and will follow the 7 areas of the EYFS curriculum. This sets the standards for the learning, development, and care of your child. These areas are crucial for igniting children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning and for building their capacity to learn, form relationships and thrive, to ensure children are ready for their next stage in their school journey. These three areas, the prime areas, are:
- Communication and Language
- Physical Development
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
We also support children in four specific areas, through which the three prime areas are strengthened and applied. The specific areas are:
*Expressive Arts and Design *Literacy *Mathematics *Understanding the World
