Blossom 2025 - 2026

Hello and welcome to Blossom Class,

In Nursery the adults are Miss McElhinney and Mrs Boghiu. Mrs Rowland is also with us on a Wednesday afternoon and Mrs Evans on a Thursday afternoon.

 

About us

In Blossom class we take children from the age of 3. We have qualified and experienced staff that will care for your child. We aim to provide a variety of play experiences to encourage language and develop play experiences. Each child has a key person who is responsible for their observations and assessments.

We follow the ‘Birth to 5 Matters’ document, focusing on the prime and specific areas which are;

  • Personal, social and emotional development,

  • Communication and language

  • Physical development.

  • Literacy

  • Mathematics

  • Understanding the World

  • Expressive Arts and Design

We currently offer 5 x morning sessions, 5 x afternoon sessions or, if you qualify for 30 hours of funding, 5 x full day sessions. Please see times below.

Morning session - 8.30am – 11.30am

Afternoon session - 12.15pm - 3.15pm

Full Day session - 8.30am - 3.15pm

Drop off and collection:

The children will be greated through the nursery classroom door (to the right of the main office entrance) by Miss McElhinney in the morning and by Mrs Willcocks in the afternoon. 

Doors open 8:30-8:40am and 12:15-12:25pm (late arrivals must go through the office).

The children are collected from the nursery classroom door, through the KS1 gate and Reception play area, at both end of morning and end of afternoon.

Doors open 11:30-11:40am and 3:15-3:30pm

If someone is collecting who staff have not met before, please let staff know and they will also ask for the person collecting to provide the password.

Tapestry

We use the Tapestry App to keep in contact with parents. Your child’s key worker will upload regular photos explaining what your child may be learning during their time in Blossom Class and giving some ideas of activities that you could complete at home to help your child to develop.

We also encourage parents to upload photo’s or video’s of their child from days out or any WOW moments from home, the children love to share these experiences with us in class! 

If you have any questions or queries then please do not hesitate to contact myself by calling the school office.

Miss McElhinney
