Welcome to ELMCROFT NURSERY
Setting the scene
On behalf of the staff, I warmly welcome you to Elmcroft Nursery website.
If this is your first experience of a nursery, then I hope this website will be a helpful guide and will give you a glimpse of the life at Elmcroft Nursery.
“One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, is to have a happy childhood”- Agatha Christie
At Elmcroft Nursery we believe that childhood is the most precious gift, where children should have the opportunity to explore the world around them whilst in safe hands. We concur with Friedrich Frobel when he suggests “Childhood is a time for, well, childhood! It’s not a preparation for school or adulthood. It’s a time for allowing children to go at their own pace, giving children time they need to explore, manipulate, discover, and practice newly acquired skills”
At Elmcoft Nursery we are extremely passionate at placing children, families, staff and the community at the heart of all we do. We are very proud of our embedded partnership to create quality, sustained, positive opportunities & outcomes for all.
