The Nursery is run by the school and is inspected alongside the main school. We are therefore eligible for 3 and 4 year-old funding from the government. This means that from the term following your child's third birthday they are entitled to 15 funded hours per week, during term-time.
You may also be eligible for 2 year old funding or working families funding (15 hours for 2 year-olds or 30 hours for 3 and 4 year-olds), depending on your circumstances.

Curriculum Statement
At Madron Daniel, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework (EYFS).
Parents/Guardians
You are the children's first and most important educators. When parents and staff work together in an ‘early years’ setting, the results have a positive impact on the child's development and learning. Therefore, in our nursery, we aim to develop an effective partnership with you, allowing your child to benefit from our cooperation and encouraging a two-way flow of information, knowledge and expertise.
To keep you informed of your child's learning, we use the online platform - Seesaw. Each child also has their own 'Busy Book', which is full of photos detailing your child's memorable moments.
