Keepers Cottage Nursery
In September 2023, Scargill Infant School opened a brand new Nursery on site called Keepers Cottage. It is named after Mrs Keeper as she always had a vision of opening a nursery during the 27 years of her being the Headteacher. We had the pleasure of welcoming the Mayoress, Councillor Stephanie Nunn and Mrs Keepers Husband and Daughter to celebrate the opening of the nursery.
Our Nursery runs term time only for children that are 3 years old and are due to start Reception the following September. We currently take children who are three and four years old and are entitled to 15 hours funded childcare. To check if you are eligible for a 30 hour place please go to http://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk.
Our session times are as follows.
8.45am Start of the Morning Session
11.45am End of the Morning Session
11.45 to 12.15pm Lunchtime (For an extra fee)
12.15 Start of the Afternoon Session
3.15pm End of the Afternoon Session
Blossom
In Nursery all parents will be invited to join the app, 'Blossom'. Staff use Blossom to document your child's learning journey by adding photographs and comments that you can see at home. Parents and carers are encouraged to share photographs from home too.
Key Person
In Nursery all children are allocated a Key Person. A Key Person is responsible for developing a close relationship with your child and yourselves. Your child's Key Person will meet with you once a term to discuss your child's progress.
