Welcome to Ashmead Nursery
At Ashmead Nursery we cater for funded children from 2 years to 4 years old.
We offer a wide and varied curriculum based around the 7 Areas of Learning linked to the Early Years Foundation Stage.
The three Prime Areas of learning are Personal, Social and Emotional development, Communication and Language and Physical Development.
The four Specific Areas of learning that run alongside the Prime Areas are Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding of the World and Expressive Arts and Design.
We work hard to ensure our environment and staff interaction ensures the children develop to the best of their ability in these key areas of learning. We strive to ensure that at all times we offer a curriculum that is exciting and fun and one that will reflect the school's ethos of learning through experience.
Please contact the Nursery or school office for a registration form and to make an appointment to look around the setting.

Beat Baby
We will be using Beat Baby to encourage the children to join in with rhyme.
Rhymes help children learn to talk and read. Rhymes break worlds into sounds which help the children to hear the phonemes or individual parts of a word, as in ‘Twin-kle, twin-kle, lit-tle star’. Rhymes introduce new words which help build children's vocabulary.
We will also use 'Beat Baby' as a way of teaching children about our rules and routines, and expected behaviour.
