Our Services

At Castle Vale Nursery School, we offer a range of services to support the growth and development of every child in our care. Our services include:

• Individualised Learning: We believe that every child is unique and deserves a learning experience tailored to their individual needs. Our staff work closely with each child to develop a learning plan that is challenging, engaging, and fun.
• Free Flow Learning Environment: Our learning environment is designed to encourage exploration and creativity. Children are free to move around the classroom and choose activities that interest them, promoting independence and self-confidence.
• Forest School Sessions: Every week, children attend Forest School sessions where they learn independence, life skills, and environmental awareness through varied and practical activities.
• Sensory and Messy Play: We love to be outdoors and enjoy sensory and messy play. Children have the opportunity to explore and experiment with different materials, promoting sensory development and creativity.
• Support for Children: We are committed to providing support for all children in our care. We work closely with families and external agencies to ensure that every child receives the support they need to thrive.
