New Beginnings Nursery Rainham

This room is full of a wide variety of educational toys, books, puzzles, construction resources and sensory materials to stimulate the children’s senses and challenge their minds. For new children starting with us, we focus on building consistency and stability between home and nursery to ensure a smooth transition for the whole family, and a solid foundation for a wonderful relationship to begin between our family and yours.

Every child is allocated a key person who supports them between drop off to pick up. Your child’s key person will be responsible for their individual weekly planning and next steps, as well as helping parents to continue building on what the children have learnt at home.

In the Rainbow room, we have a particular focus on allowing the children to lead their learning using construction, role play, small world play, musical instruments and natural resources. We also introduce numbers, colours and letters to the children in a fun and engaging way. Your child’s key person will be responsible for carrying out carefully planned activities to help them further their learning, as well as build on their social and emotional development.

Of primary importance is a strong partnership with parents to ensure a smooth transition, either as a new starter or in moving up from the Raindrop room. We know that parents are a child’s first educator so strive to provide you with ideas for home, alongside advice and guidance around toilet training and behaviour management.

We take advantage of the children’s ever-growing knowledge to prepare them for their next adventure in school. We fulfil this by instilling confidence, and independence and encouraging curiosity and exploration through their play. We work alongside parents to get their children school-ready by suggesting activities to help with letter and number recognition, phonics and early reading and writing. We are also able to provide advice on choosing the right school for your child.
