Our Nursery and Reception have joined together to make a wonderful EYFS unit.

We have a large team of dedicated staff and an amazing indoor and outdoor provision for the children to explore, learn and develop. 

At Meanwood, we develop our core values of Kindness, Responsibility and Respect.

We value learning to communicate, read and write. We develop wonder and curiosity in the world around us.  We are creative and use our imaginations. We secure a good understanding of early number sense.

Reading Stars

If your child reads at least 3 times a week, they are a Reading Star!

Reading stars are a way of rewarding and encouraging parents and children to read together on a regular basis. Children love to win a book and it really encourages and motivates them to improve their reading whilst at home.

Please read with your children every day (or at least 3 times a week) and return their signed reading record and book to school every day. Ask staff for more information.

Reminder

Please ensure children wear suitable clothing and footwear and are provided with a warm coat, hat, scarf, gloves during the winter months.

Clothing should be clearly labelled with the child's full name and class.
