Equal Opportunities
In the nursery, we believe that everyone should be treated with the same level of respect and dignity, regardless of their age, gender, race, religion, skin colour, marital status, ethnic or national origin, or political beliefs. We strive to create a safe and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and appreciated.

• Encouraging children to join in activities, i.e. dressing up, shopping, home corner, dolls, climbing on large apparatus, bikes, etc.
