    New Nursery Opening at Heene CE Primary School

    We are delighted to announce the opening of our brand-new nursery at Heene Church of England Primary School. Rooted in our Christian vision, “Together in faith we love, grow and learn,” our nursery will provide a nurturing and inspiring start for our youngest learners.

    Opening in January 2027, our nursery will offer high-quality early years education within a caring, inclusive and stimulating environment where every child is valued as an individual.


    A Strong Start for Every Child

    At Heene, we believe that the early years are the foundation for lifelong learning. Our nursery is designed to help children feel safe, confident and ready to explore the world around them.

    Through a balance of child-led play and carefully planned adult guidance, we support children to:

    • Develop strong communication and language skills
    • Build confidence and independence
    • Form positive relationships
    • Foster curiosity and a love of learning

    Every child is known, supported and encouraged to flourish.


    Our Values in Action

    Our nursery reflects the values at the heart of our school community. Guided by our vision, children will:

    • Love – learn in a caring environment where kindness and respect are modelled and celebrated
    • Grow – develop socially, emotionally, academically and spiritually
    • Learn – engage in meaningful experiences that spark curiosity and creativity

    We nurture the whole child, supporting both personal development and academic readiness.


    High-Quality Early Years Provision

    Our curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), with a strong focus on:

    • Communication and language
    • Personal, social and emotional development
    • Physical development
    • Early literacy and mathematics
    • Expressive arts and understanding the world

    Learning is shaped around children’s interests, ensuring that every experience is engaging, purposeful and tailored to individual needs.


    A Safe and Nurturing Environment

    Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do. Our experienced staff create a secure and welcoming space where children feel safe, happy and ready to learn.

    We build strong relationships with families and work in partnership with parents to ensure every child receives the care and support they need.


    Excellent Facilities

    Our new nursery will include:

    • A well-resourced indoor learning environment
    • A stimulating outdoor area designed for exploration and physical development
    • Access to the wider school environment and community

    These spaces are carefully designed to support active, hands-on learning every day.


    Working in Partnership with Families

    We recognise that parents and carers are a child’s first educators. We work closely with families, providing regular updates on children’s learning and creating opportunities for shared experiences and communication.

    Together, we ensure every child feels happy, secure and ready to thrive.
