Nursery
Endike Nursery opened in its new site in 2011 and since then has developed a reputation for providing high quality early years education and care. In 2021 the Two Year Old provision was opened and already is a popular addition to our provision.
‘Relationships with adults are wonderful and everyone has a fun time at school, no matter what their age!’ (Ofsted, 2015)
Endike Nursery offers places for children from 2 years of age to children who are due to start Reception the following September.
Teaching groups are arranged into a dedicated space for 2-year olds, that has its own facilities and outdoor space, and a separate, more challenging space, perfect for growing 3, 4 and 5-year olds.
‘ A strong team of staff work effectively together and are driven to provide children with the best possible start to school life. The classrooms and magnificent outdoor areas are well resourced and all areas of children’s learning are provided for well.’ (Ofsted, 2015)
