Nursery

Welcome to the class page for Nursery!

So here it is the time has come,
To leave the little ones that you love.
Please don't worry, we will be here,
To show we care and wipe away the tears.
We will teach them lots and help them grow,
They will come home and show you what they know.
I know it's hard but don't be sad,
It really won't be that bad...
Because now you can leave your trust in me,
And go and enjoy a nice hot cup of tea!
