We are delighted to announce that following a recent Ofsted inspection Wheatley Hill Community Nursery has been awarded GOOD across the board.
The practitioners, leaders and management team have worked extremely hard to ensure our setting is thriving and the children are happy, healthy and learning.
The Ofsted inspector said
“ Staff are clear about where children are in their development and what they need to learn next. They weave support for this through exciting and challenging experiences that reflect children's interests”
“Parents speak very highly of the setting and its staff team. They praise the dedication of staff and say they feel well informed about their child's day. Staff build strong partnerships with parents through events such as 'stay and play' and by sharing books and ideas for learning with parents to explore with their children at home”
We would like to congratulate all involved in the inspection and thank all parents and carers for their continued support and kind words.

Reminders
As we enjoy lots of outdoor fun can I please remind children should come to nursery appropriately dressed. We do have waterproof clothing but appreciate children to bring in their own wellies from home. It would be great if you could also ensure their name is somewhere visible on all garments as it is very easy for things to become misplaced/mixed up. As the weather improves, we would also ask that you provide your child with adequate sun protection (Cap / Hat & Suncream). Please can you ensure your child brings a bag equipped with a change of clothing particularly socks!!
Please remember that mobile phones are not to be used within the nursery at any time.
We love to see what you have been doing at home. Photos are always valued and feed into your children’s learning giving many opportunities to link experiences. If you feel time is a problem, feel free to email the photos straight from your phone and we can print them off to share its nursery@whcnltd.com or add them to our nursery a
Thank you for your continued support.

Welcome back to nursery
We have many new children joining us this term in all three rooms. The rooms are all fresh after a deep clean with lots of new resources to promote interests and learning. I'm sure the children will settle in extremely well with the support of the staff and will be able to explore the environment with confidence. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome them into our nursery family and hope that they enjoy their time here with us.
Uniform is not compulsory, but we are overwhelmed with the amount of interest children and families have shown. Previously many children have attended in uniform and look very smart from such a young age giving them a sense of belonging and protecting own clothing.
Order forms are available if you wish to purchase any uniform for your children. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to speak to a member of staff. All our children are very proud to show their uniform as well as looking so smart.
