We work in close partnership with Barkston Ash RC Primary School collaborating on joint training and other events, we share information where necessary and school make visits to nursery to establish links with children transitioning to school.
The nursery makes regular visits to the nursing home with children to carry out joint activities such as crafts, singing, teddy bear picnics, sports day and carol concert.
We regularly visit a local woods to give children the opportunity to learn in an "outdoor classroom" providing the opportunity to explore and discover the natural world.
STC ensures continued development for the horticultural industry. For over 12 years the nursery has taken children in their last term before starting school to be part of the 'big harvest'. The aim is to get children interested in growing their own produce. On the day children pick a variety of fruit and vegetables to bring home.
We took the children last December to take part in the 12 days of Christmas Woodland Walk. This was a magical walk with twinkling lit paths, enchanting installations and interactive stations for the children to enjoy.
We intend to visit more regularly for themed activities.
