Our Nursery Ethos

At Brambles we nurture children to become curious learners who find enjoyment in exploring the world around them and are ambitious in what they can achieve.

Our children will be…
Communication and Language
Confident communicators who use a rich and varied vocabulary and are able to engage in meaningful two-way conversations.

Personal, Social and Emotional Development
Children who believe in themselves build positive and caring relationships, and learn how to keep themselves happy, healthy and safe.

Physical Development
Active explorers who take appropriate, managed risks in their play while developing strong gross and fine motor skills.

Literacy 
Children who are immersed in a love of stories, language and books, building the foundations for a lifelong enjoyment of reading.

Mathematics
Resilient mathematical thinkers who explore numbers, patterns and problem-solving with curiosity and confidence.

Understanding the World
Kind, caring and respectful learners who appreciate the natural world and value the diverse community around them.

Expressive Arts and Design
Independent  and imaginative creators who express themselves freely through a range of creative experiences.

Our Aims
Our aim is to create  a safe, happy and nurturing environment where children develop the  skills, values and knowledge that build strong foundations for future learning. 

We believe that children learn best through play and we value play as an essential part of every child’s development. We support each child in growing in confidence and independence by providing a warm, home from home setting where they feel secure, understood and celebrated. Every child is recognised as an individual and encouraged to develop a strong sense of belonging.
