We have achieved a Healthy Setting Award!!!, by Mrs Beckett
Date: 13th Sep 2018 @ 5:08pm
We are very proud to announce that St Vincent's Nursery have achieved a Healthy Setting Award, awarded to us by Trafford Early Years.
Over the last few months we have worked on gathering evidence on various aspects of the award, ensuring that we not only meet every single criteria within each section, but we over-achieve them to the highest standard, when it comes to children's physical development and activity, emotional well-being, safe food and healthy eating.
Our heart-felt thank you goes to every single member of our nursery team - from practitioners, to the kitchen team, to the management and support team, who ensure every minute of every day that all aspects of the award are, and have always been, accounted for. This is reflected in our routines, daily physical activity, nutrition and the strong supportive relationships that our practitioners build with the children. Well done!

During our summer closure weeks, we have worked extremely hard on developing all our rooms. This involved:

- putting up brand new room display boards to complement the learning areas within each room
- purchasing brand new tables and chairs in Pre-school
- purchasing a brand new 'Billy Goat's Gruff Bridge' for Young Explorers, to support physical development of our youngest customers
- purchasing brand new furniture and resources for all rooms to create a fantastic learning environment for children of all ages and provide them with unforgettable experiences whilst in our care

On the 26th July we received an unannounced visit from an Environmental Health Officer who was carrying out a routine inspection. It didn't come as a surprise to anyone that we have once again achieved the highest level of Food Hygiene Rating - Level 5 - which is a true reflection on the outstanding practice of the kitchen team. Well done Greg and Jacky on such an amazing achievement, we are all very well looked after for sure!
Our New Nursery Council , by Josh Bullock
Date: 31st Mar 2017 @ 11:28am
The Pre-school children now have their new Nursery Council Members, every child was given a special vote for one person in their key group and the child with the most votes from each group became their representative. The Council members will be given the opportunity to talk about their favourite things about nursery, any new activities or games they would like to play as well as brain storming new ideas for our 'Phonics Wellie Walks'.
