Atherstone Nursery School and Warwickshire Early Years Hub

It was lovely to meet the parents of our new January intake children this evening. We look forward to visiting you all at home and then to welcoming you into nursery after Christmas. #newchildren

This afternoon, we did another proper fire drill with the fire bell going off , and without the children knowing it was going to happen. We evacuated the building and were all accounted for in just over 2 minutes. These children were as calm and sensible as the morning and beginning of the week children and did exactly what we had shown to do. We were especially impressed as it has been a few weeks since we first practiced and they still remembered! We are very proud of them

We have some vacancies for Parent Governors on the Nursery Governing Board. Would you like to be involved in shaping the future of our Nursery? Come and speak to Helen or Kate on reception if you are interested and we will let you have some more information. #Governors

Don't forget that tomorrow is our Spotty Day for Children in Need! #ChildreninNeed

We are very proud of them and we are sure you are too! #Fire

We have been talking to the children about Bonfire Night and especially about staying safe around bonfires, fireworks, sparklers and matches. If you are having your own celebrations or going to an organised event, we wish you all a safe and happy Bonfire Night. #Bonfire

Well, today was the turn of the afternoon children, and the children who attend at the end of the week to have a Fire Drill practice, and we were as impressed with how they responded as we were with the morning children and those who attend at the start of the week. Well done to everyone, especially one child who managed to overcome his worries about it, and coped really well. It is very reassuring to know that, if the fire alarm was to go off, the children would be able to d

We will be taking part in Children in Need on Wednesday 16th November, so that all of the children can participate. It is going to be a spotty day! #ChildreninNeed
