Pastoral Care
The nursery is an extension of the home and by sharing in the relationship already established with parents, an attempt is made by all the nursery staff to create a safe, secure, stimulating and happy environment.
Parental Involvement
At Sunnylands Nursery School we aim to involve parents in their child’s education through close links between home and school. We recognise the importance of you, the parent, as your child’s first educator. Your opinions and views are welcomed and respected in our school and we have an open door policy to ensure you have maximum involvement in your child’s education. Our nursery will become part of your child’s family life.
Like you, we consider your child’s wellbeing and happiness to be our top priority. Our staff are always available for guidance, support and information.
