From the Ledbury Primary School
I am Emma, a certified early years specialist teacher who works with Little Wren.
We recognise how crucial it is to select the ideal environment for your child.
We believe that coming to visit us with your kid and seeing our students and staff will give you and your child the finest sense possible of what Little Wrens has to offer.
The ethos of Little Wrens Nursery is based in part on the ideals of the larger school, which include respect, tolerance, kindness, and positivism.
We accept children from the Ledbury neighbourhood and beyond who are 24 months to 4 years old and are located in the Early Years area of Ledbury Primary School.
Little Wrens is very much a specialised early years setting where our loving, experienced, and well qualified staff treat each child as a distinct and independent learner, despite having all the benefits of being in a school.
At Little Wrens, we think that every child deserves a safe, nurturing environment to help them grow into their full potential as learners.
Our programme is child-led, so staff members constantly watch, evaluate, and engage with kids to fully understand their developmental stage, individual learning preferences, and areas of interest.
Although many of our Little Wrens move on to the Reception classrooms at Ledbury Primary School, our environment will help them transfer to any school.
Children will be dropped off and picked up by staff at Little Wrens nursery.
For more details, visit the Larks and Owls page.
