Mission Statement
At Warrington Road Nursery School we serve the community by providing happy, secure and caring environment where all are valued and respected. We believe in the uniqueness of the individual and recognise the diversity and range of contributions that each can make.

We aim to provide for the moral, emotional, physical, mental, social and spiritual development of the whole child; this includes a growth in knowledge and understanding of self, and the world in which we live. We seek to foster self-esteem and a sense of responsibility to others and the world around.

In all that we do we endevour to provide a high quality of eduction within a creative, stimulating, encouraging and mutally supportive environment where children are enabled to develop the skills they require for living.

School Hours
Morning session: 9.00am to 11.30am
Afternoon Session: 1.00pm to 3.30pm

When you are offered a place for your child it is either a morning or an afternoon place. We try to meet your preference. Please try to ensure that children attend as regularly as possible, unles they or you are ill. Please remember that it is a regulation that children must be collected by an adult. (someone aged 16 or over). Please tell us if somebody different will be collecting your child.

Admissions
The admission policy is determined by the Education Authority. A copy of the policy is available at the Area Office.

New children are admitted in September. All children attend on a part-time basis. Children attend for 3 terms although it is sometimes possible for some children to attend for more than 3 terms if places are available.

We regard parents / carers as valued partners. They are encouraged to visit the school prior to their child’s admission. We will make a home visit to introduce ourselves to you at a mutually convenient date before your child starts the nursery. We believe it is vital that parents should have the opportunity to tell us about their children and to learn something about our school and what we are trying to achieve.

We aim to provide a welcoming environment. We operate a policy of gradual, staggered admission of new children. We believe that this helps to children to feel more confident and secure in adjusting to a different situation.

Special Needs
We regard every child as an individual with his/her own strengths and weaknesses. All children are equally valued and have access to all areas of the curriculum. All children have abilities which can be promoted. We provide a wide variety of resources to help us to extend their abilities at all levels.
