Curious Explorers Day Nursery Crookham Village is located in the heart of Crookham Village and backs onto a farmers field.

The nursery cares for children from 3 months old up to 5 years old.

It is a lovely setting with light rooms that all has access to our large garden where children can play and grow their own fruit and vegetables.

We offer Forest School sessions for all ages.

All of the children have the chance to move around the nursery's rooms freely to learn new things in a safe and fun way.

Staff ensure children's social, personal and communication skills are developed via the nursery's many fun activities and child-led play opportunities.

The nursery has highly qualified, caring staff, looking after children between the ages of birth and five years of age.

All children are able to develop their full potential at their own pace.

Children can eat healthy, well-balanced and delicious food prepared at the nursery.

An online learning journal tracks each child’s progress and can be accessed by parents and carers.

An online care journal keeps you updated about your child's care through out the day.

How will both you and I know how my child/young person is doing and how will you help me to support my child's/young person's learning?

In some cases we use an Ann Locke form to identify the gaps more clearly.

Additional support for each child's well being is provided according to their needs. This ensures all children's needs are met at all times.

We support all children in getting them ready for school. We have a school readiness programme we follow.

We support parents in applying for Special Educational Schools and organise meetings with the teachers of their chosen school to ensure a smooth transition to school.

How are the setting's/school's/college's resources allocated and matched to children's/young people's special educational needs?

Resources are allocated on a needs basis, in conjunction with the local authority's financial support.

How is the decision made about what type and how much support my child/young person will receive?

Through the support of the Local Authority we are able to access additional funding to ensure children are allocated additional support during their time with us.
