Nursery

Little Hedgehogs Nursery

Little Hedgehogs is a fun and stimulating environment where children from 2-4 years can explore a range of experiences both inside and outside.

Mrs Harris and Mrs Duffin hope to make your learning journey exciting and enriching this year. 

Each term we will focus on a different topic and will use the children’s interests to help us choose our learning through play. 

The children are nurtured and encouraged to be adventurous and independent, whilst making discoveries in the world around them .

We are open for all 2-4 year olds between 9am-3pm.

The sessions we offer

Our nursery starts at the beginning of September and runs until July in line with South Witham Academy Term Dates.

Funding

We have funding spaces! We can accept both 15 hours and 30 hours term time funded places for our 2, 3 and 4 year olds. These hours can be with us or split between another provision, meaning your child can attend more than one setting.
