OUR NURSERY / HEALTHY MEALS / UPDATES
OUTSIDE PLAY & EDUCATION
We have our own secure outside play area at our nursery.
We follow the national curriculum which includes outside
play and development. Many children thrive outside and
develop so we continue to observe and plan for the
children to enhance their learning through play. We
have two sheds where we store our outside toys which
also gives the children independence to help them grow.
Padiwacks also has a mini bus and we do take the older
pre-school children on trips and to visit parks. In addition
we take the children into the community and they visit the
library, supermarkets and shops.
"Children are provided with a good range of freshly prepared nutritious
meals and snacks, which contributes towards keeping them healthy"
HEALTHY MEALS
We are committed to providing healthy, nutritious and
tasty food for all the children who attend our setting. The
Nursery Manager, chef and staff will ensure that all the
food and drink is safely prepared. We cater for all dietary
requirements and cultural preferences. We regularly
update the menu and you can view the latest menu online.
We are responsible for providing all the food and we
cannot accept any food from parents onto our premises.
REGULAR UPDATES
We hold regular monthly meetings with Parents. Of course
in the current situation from March 2020 we cannot hold
meetings at site but we encourage feedback electronically
so we can continue to improve our setting by working
closely with parents. We provide a monthly newsletter
which is available on our homepage and is also displayed
by the front door at our setting. There are also regular
updates via all social media including facebook, twitter and
instagram.
"Staff have a secure understanding of how
children learn and develop. The varied range
