Welcome to Yew Tree Nursery
Yew Tree Nursery and Preschool, located in a beautiful and historic building, providing care for children from 3 months to 5 years old, as well as offering After School Care and Holiday Clubs for children at school ages. We believe that all children have the right to learn in a caring, supportive and safe environment and therefore work hard to provide our children the best start of their early education.
Our staff
- With many years Early Years` experience, our staff are friendly, loving and passionate about delivering high quality care.
- Many of our staff have also achieved Degree Level in Early Years Education, which is above required qualification.
- Our Early Years Teacher with vast knowledge and experience in Early Years, is fully dedicated to our children`s learning and development.
Our Care
- Our desire is to empower our children to learn by providing them with real life and hands on experience. Nursery is in the process of transforming into a “Curiosity Approach” setting where natural resources and real life objects are becoming the centre of our practice.
- Early Years Teacher provides enhanced phonics and mathematics lessons and prepares children for their school readiness.
- Planned and child led activities appropriately challenge children`s potential and extend their learning.
- Located next to Holly Trinity Church School https://holytrinity.somerset.sch.uk/ where children attend regular outdoor learning.
- Working closely with Somerset Activity and Sports Partnership (SASP) on inter-generation physical development, our children enjoy visiting a local care home and carry out different physical activities.
- Tatty Bumpkin ( multi-sensory, yoga-inspired activity sessions) are welcome by all of our children. https://childreninspiredbyyoga.com/somerseteast/
