Dear Parents, Carers and Members of our School Community,

 

I am delighted to share the exciting news that we have been successful in our application for funding to create a school‑based nursery.

 

This funding will enable us to make the necessary adaptations to the building and to develop the nursery provision fully, including the purchase of appropriate furniture, resources and equipment to create a high-quality early years learning environment.

 

Building works are scheduled to begin in early June and will also include the alterations to the front of the school, internal works within the KS1 area, and the creation of new outdoor decking and landscaped spaces. We anticipate the works to be completed over the summer holiday, in time for our return and the start of the Autumn term in September.

 

These improvements will support both the new nursery and the wider school environment, ensuring safe, welcoming and purposeful spaces for our children.

 

This is a significant and exciting development for St Michael’s and reflects our ongoing commitment to providing outstanding education and care from the very earliest stages. We are very much looking forward to the launch of the nursery and the opportunities it will bring for children, families and the local community.

 

We will continue to keep you updated as work progresses and share further information over the coming weeks.

 

Exciting times lie ahead, and I am really looking forward to this next chapter for our school.

 

Yours sincerely,

Nick Kiddle
Headteacher
