Cherry Tree Nursery

At Cherry Tree Nursery, we provide our children with a creative and stimulating environment, designed and led by a qualified teacher. Children are happy, engaged, challenged, nurtured and feel safe. Here, your child will develop a curiosity and love for learning through self chosen play and adult guided activities. We ensure children leave us ready for school and the next stage of their learning. We provide spaces for children from the age of 2, Blossom Tree, and we offer both funded and fee paying places.
As Greenacres has a specialist provision for supporting children with language disorders, we employ staff who are specialists in supporting children with language needs.

Curriculum
Our curriculum is designed to reflect our diverse community. We believe personalised learning for our children equips them with a range of life skills as well as the skills of language and communication, socialisation and physical development. Children are ready to absorb knowledge and apply it.
We believe that children learn best through engaging, creative and imaginative experiences led by a qualified teacher and supported by skilled staff who have developed strong, positive relationships with them.
Your child will be taking part in a range of play based activities which link to the Early Years Framework. These include maths, literacy, understanding the world and expressive arts and design.
We offer a stimulating learning environment which includes a large open plan indoor space and two outdoor areas which provide different opportunities for learning. One outdoor area allows children to ride bikes, climb, construct and become creative and the second allows for a more nature based play experience and this includes a large digging area, bug hotel, sandpit and den building. In addition, we have a designated Forest School site which the children access weekly.
