Good News Family Care Nursery has been supporting families in the community since 1989

 

What Are We Doing?

We've got lots of exciting things going on at the moment:

We decorated a lamppost for Whaley Bridge Carnival. If you look carefully - you can still see it near old road.

  Our Wells Dressing

We had lots of fun, making our Wells Dressing, on the theme of the Olympic Torch. It was was on show in the canal basin for the wells dressing festival.

 

We also made our mini wells dressings at nursery and at the school fairs at Whaley Bridge and Taxal & Fernilee.

 

Did you come and see us?

Recently we've been thinking about the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, making flags and pictures, dressing up  and having street parties.

 Going for Gold    

At the moment we've been thinking about the Olympic Torch relay and all the different people taking part.


 What Do We Get Up To?

Throughout the year, we focus on lots of different activities.
Our planning covers one area of the EYFS per week,
with focussed activities differentiated for each child's stage of development.
We include the childrens interests and experiences in our planning so that we can work with them to create a learning environment where they can feel comfortable and have fun at the same time.

Each child has a Key Person who is responsible for supporting and recording that Child's development and next steps as well as working with the family/carers, to help the child achieve their full potential.

OFSTED

We are also fully OFSTED Registered.
