Nursery

Nursery has children aged 3-4. Nursery classes are only 3 hours a day, so we have a morning and afternoon nursery class, with up to 39 children in each class.

The morning class is called Moon and the afternoon class is called Stars.

The teachers in Nursery for 2024/25 are Mrs Williams and Mrs Rathor-Khan. They are supported by the Early Years Practitioners; Miss A Iqbal, Miss S Iqbal, Miss Noreen and Miss Khan. As well as the Teaching and learning partners, Miss Nazli and Miss Abid.
