Welcome To Early Years!

What we do

At Meadow Green, our Nursery and Reception Class work together as an Early Years Foundation Stage Unit. There are times in the day where the children play and learn within their Nursery or Reception class and other times where they get to work alongside one another, sharing and joining in activities and learning experiences. We focus on the needs of your child as an individual and tailor our teaching styles to suit them.  We  also place great emphasis on strong relationships; within and between the classes and our staff with your child and families.

Our door is always open - you can talk to our friendly staff face-to-face, on the phone or via Class-Dojo messenger.
