Our Nursery
Sceptre Nursery opened in 1996 to look after both employees of Eric Wright and children from the local area. We are currently registered for 26 children (with a maximum of 6 babies).
​
The nursery is registered with OFSTED and follows the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage).
​
We are housed in a single storey, purpose built building providing care for children from 3 months to 5 years. We have a large exploratory outdoor space.
​
​
The Nursery opening hours are:
MONDAY to FRIDAY 8.00 AM – 5.45 PM, 51 weeks a year.
​
We currently have spaces available. However, spaces are currently limited for our younger baby room spaces.
​
Please contact the nursery direct if you wish to discuss a place for your child.
Mission Statement
It is our aim at Sceptre Nursery that every child develops a lively, enquiring mind, feels happy, safe, secure and fulfils his/her own potential in every aspect of learning and growth. To achieve this, we provide a well resourced and stimulating environment that:
​
-
Protects and nurtures the well-being and health of the child
-
Encourages a sense of belonging and active involvement in the education process for children and their families
-
Ensures that opportunities for learning are fair and each child’s contribution and individuality is valued providing fully inclusive practice
-
Recognises that children learn through exploration
-
Values and promotes play as proving meaningful learning
-
Provides a broad balanced curriculum that meets the needs of each child reflecting The Foundation Stage from birth until the end of reception year
-
Provides opportunities for children to take responsibility and to share in decisions that affect them
-
Recognises that the acquisition of knowledge and skills should be planned and appropriate to each child’s needs
​
We are confident that this approach will give lasting benefits to our children and lay secure foundations for the next stage of schooling.
