Barfield School Nursery is excellent. It is a very nurturing environment for the children and the teaching staff take special care to ensure that each child's needs are catered for. I particularly like the fact that the nursery is integrated into the main school meaning that they are able to mix with other children and learn from them. The range of activities available is fantastic, swimming, music, forest school, cooking etc.
My daughter has developed so much in the few weeks since she started at Barfield School Nursery. Her language has improved immeasurably, she says "Please" and "Thank you" a lot more and generally seems very happy and stimulated. The range of activities is extremely varied, the food is well prepared and the staff are lovely, professional and caring.
The staff are professional but nurturing too! Your child is treated as an individual. I could not recommend Barfield more.
My daughter adores the nursery at Barfield School. She loves the staff and really enjoys the activities on offer (especially swimming and cooking). She has had a lot of fun this term with the topic of families including making a beautifully decorated frame for a photo of us all.
During my daughter's last 12 months at Barfield she has developed into a polite little girl, her speech, writing and numbers as improved dramatically. The staff team are all amazing, the rooms are well equipped and along with the playing fields, forest and chickens and pool. They have a huge variety of activities at their disposal. The wrap around care provides flexibility for parents. All this for the same cost as a normal stand alone nursery. Barfield Nursery is superb.
My 2 and a half-year-old daughter has recent started attending the nursery at Barfield School. Each day she returns home full of stories about her day! She receives a wonderful balance of learning and play and the nursery facilities are fantastic. I hope she continues with the same level of enthusiasm through the school years.
-The children take advantage of all of the school facilities, including the art and craft room, swimming pool, hall for games, woodland for forest schools and music room.
-They learn music and PE with qualified specialist teachers each week.
- I get individual, detailed feedback on my daughter's progress and development, as well as her social interactions with others.
-The staff listen to my comments and queries and are all approachable and utterly reliable. There is also regular weekly email communication.
-I would recommend this nursery to all. Brilliant!
Our son really enjoys his time at nursery, the staff are very caring and encourage his development at every opportunity. The feedback from the staff about the day is very good and also the term and annual reports show just how much he has enjoyed his time at nursery. Our son's speech and vocabulary have really developed. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending Barfield School Nursery.
