Nursery

The Nursery class at Kingham Primary School is part of the integrated Early Years Foundation Stage Unit. Places are offered for children from the age of three, subject to availability.

The nursery provides appropriate activities and purposeful play for younger children suitable for their age and individual needs. If offers a nurturing environment to develop happy, healthy children and inspire a lifelong love of learning. The nursery enables a smooth transition into the Reception class for those children that subsequently receive places in the school.
