Values

Happy children from just 6 weeks to 5 years learn and develop at Church View Day Nursery. Working within the 'Early Years Foundation Stage' framework we encourage children to initiate their own activities, making decisions and choices for themselves.

The children have fun working, learning and playing with our staff and each other , building their creativity and independence in a purpose built and safe environment. We are inspired by the Danish concept of Hyyge and have incorporated this into our environment creating a warm, cosy and inviting learning space. 

Family fun creating circuits and a torch to take home.

In these fun family challenges you'll get to make circuits, explore conductors and insulators. Then, you'll test your skills by creating a torch to take home. 

A great way for families to investigate electricity together.
