Our vision
All children strive for the highest possible achievement to be the best they can be. They value and respect themselves, others, their local, national and global community and that they are passionate about learning and pursuing excellence. We believe outcomes must reflect a deep level of learning evidenced in learnt skills and knowledge being explicitly transferred across all areas of learning.
Our aim and ambition
Each child who attends Bowlers Nursery, leave for Reception class ensuring that they are ‘primary school ready’ which means they can confidently access the next stage in their education. We teach our children to develop the following skills to support their next stage of education:
Understanding

Aspiration
To have aspiration for themselves, and for others, to achieve more
Skills

Opportunities

Community

All of the above skills support our commitment to ensure that our children leave our setting with excitement and secure foundations to continue to build upon the early stages of education and learning and to continue to develop a positive love of learning.
When the children enter our provision we focus heavily on building on their self-esteem, ensure that they feel confident and safe to learn and face challenges to build upon their prior learning and experiences, building on and developing knowledge and vocabulary to support the next step on their learning journey.
We aim to build confidence and independence and establish a life-long love for learning through exciting play opportunities and memorable experiences, equipping children with the skills to become a ‘Bowlers Community Nursery Child’.
