Harlequin Nursery & Pre-School provides a stimulating and happy environment with high quality care and education. As the children grow they mix and play together supporting the development of their physical and social skills. Using everyday opportunities and varied play experiences we encourage each child to develop at an individual pace to reach their own potential.

​

Harlequin Nursery & Pre-School teach Children using our STEM program, where the children learn about Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths, which allows the children to explore different things, observe how they are made or move and then ask questions, to enhance key skills such as reasoning, predicting, hypothesising and problem-solving.

THE CHILDREN

The children will have daily access to our outdoor learning environments. We provide suitable out-door protective clothing such as sun hats, wellies and rain coats. Outdoor play is planned and organised to provide a variety of activities using carefully chosen apparatus and wheeled toys in a safe environment. The nursery is well situated to enable the children to visit the beach and Peasholm Park.

​

Before starting, we work together with you to plan join visits for yourself and your child. This helps your child to become familiar with the nursery environment and you to develop a relationship with the staff.
