The HALO Excellence Award:
Greenway nursery has been taking part in the Healthy Active Little Ones (HALO) programme and had the opportunity to apply for the Halo Excellence awards. As an Early year setting, we have been supporting the health and wellbeing of children, families and staff who attend our nursery.
I'm pleased to announce that we have Achieved the Halo Excellence award.
We have been recognised for our continued improvement and the embedding of best practice across a range of health and wellbeing areas, such as healthy eating, physical activities, oral health, children's well-being, independence, self-care, immunisations, speech, language and communication, and adult well -being. Staff took part in various training sessions and we were also chosen for a case study on speech, language & communication.
We will also be featured in the HALO Newsletter as one of the lucky settings who are the first to gain the recognition of this award.
Please see below comments from the HALO awards panel:
