INTENT

FOUNDATION STAGE 1

For many children, Nursery marks their first step into the world of education—and at Hilltop Primary School, we ensure that step is filled with joy, discovery, and growth. Our Nursery provides a rich, stimulating environment that is warm, welcoming, and safe, helping every child feel happy, secure and ready to learn.

​​

Children thrive here through play, exploration, experimentation, and social interaction. Guided by qualified teachers and highly skilled support staff, they engage in exciting and challenging activities that spark curiosity and foster a lifelong love of learning.

IMPACT

Our dedicated Nursery team work collaboratively to observe and assess each child’s progress. We document their achievements; whether through paintings, drawings, writing, or photographs; using Tapestry, our secure online learning journal. Parents can access Tapestry to stay connected with their child’s learning journey and celebrate their milestones.
