Bramble Infant School and Nursery

Bramble Infant School and Nursery is renowned for the excellent nursery education and quality of care and nurturing that is provided.

Primrose is their baby unit where they provide a safe and stimulating environment for children 6 months old to approximately 15 months old. The room has its own entrance and buggy park on site. The children are cared for in a nurturing and stimulating environment with the opportunity to learn and explore as they play.

From around 14 months old the children move up to the Bluebell room, which is a charming and predominantly child-led environment where the seven areas of learning are introduced for children to explore and discover. When the children are approximately 2 years they will move into the Blackberry group here the children begin to experience more structured sessions.

The focus is still very much on free play and child-led learning but adults may steer some of the learning experiences to encourage the children’s development. Children can free-flow into their own dedicated outdoor area.

When the children are three they move into Pre-school, where the children’s intrinsic desire to learn is developed in preparation for when they start school. The Pre-school also has its own outside area and the children are encouraged to free flow between classrooms. They often share the outdoor area with school children in Year R which helps with the transition between nursery and school.
