Uniqueness of St Nick's Nursery

 

St Nick's Nursery is situated in St Leonards - on- Sea on the FSN charity site. It is a 3- minute walk to the train station and is serviced by local bus routes.

St Nick's Nursery is expanding in September 2024 offering two different provisions in one building; a  42- place all-year-round childcare provision for children from 3mth-5 years and a 9am-3pm term-time only provision for 2-5 year olds.  Both provisions will have access to an outside area comprising an upstairs decking area and large downstairs garden offering plenty of space for physical activity, a mud -kitchen for role- play a covered sensory play and art area as well as a small wooded area for forest- school learning. All areas are accessible for adults and children. 

The all-year-round provision is located on the first floor, fully accessible by stairs and a lift. The separate baby room has access to a small outside decking area with views to the larger downstairs garden and wooded area. The area for the 2-5 years olds is separated into cosy home like spaces for children to eat, relax, and choose to play with others or spend time on their own, offering different options for children who are neuro-diverse. There is a joint play room which offers social play opportunities, access to a decking area as well as access to the downstairs garden area.

The term-time only provision for 2-5 year-olds is situated on the ground floor offering places for up to 24 children. With a class-room and two smaller, quiet rooms for children who like time away from the larger group at times. These options are also good for children who learn best in smaller groups. The classroom opens out to the large garden.
