Welcome to Rainbows!

Rainbow is the nursery class for 3-4 year olds. Children come for half days, either in the morning or the afternoon. 

Group teaching takes place on two carpets – the Bear Carpet and the Fish Carpet. For the remaining time, a range of purposeful play activities are delivered through a balance of adult led and child initiated activities. 
 

We have a sand tray, a water table, a home corner, a doll’s house, a book corner and a craft table, as well as areas dedicated to writing, maths, technology and playing with malleable substances such as play dough.

Over the year we explore many topics, such as Festivals, the Seasons, Growth, Holidays, Night Time, and People who help us.

Every Friday, the children take home a book to read with their parents over the weekend. Learning support packs are provided, so that parents and children can work together at home. At regular intervals, parents are invited to take part in sessions designed to support their children's learning.
