Through regular family events, workshops, and information sessions, we invite parents to be an active part of their child’s early learning journey. It’s a true community feel, where families are supported and celebrated every step of the way.

Our wider local community plays an important role in the nursery experience as an extended learning environment to create well rounded socially aware young children.

What inset day looks like….
Today the team at MPOrp wrote up their quality improvement plans for their rooms using the new Ofsted framework. With these they look at the following areas within their rooms and see what they can improve on.
These areas are: safeguarding, inclusion, curriculum & teaching, achievement, behaviours attitudes & establishing routines, children’s welfare & wellbeing and leadership & governance.
These are also the new areas that Ofsted use to grade nurseries & schools.
They then had their first round of training with Ann & Kelly around what Ofsted look for at nursery, creating an ‘invite to play’ for the children, how to bring activities to life and make them engaging for the children.
After lunch they went straight into child protection awareness training with Carly from ECP where they covered signs to look out for if children are being abused, the different types of abuse, and how to report concerns to the DSL.
They ended the day with some team building exercises and a scavenger hunt! (There will be 4 videos to follow).

Star of the week ⭐️
Our star this week is our amazing new deputy manager Daniella!
Please join me in welcoming her to the team. She originally worked in our sister nursery Bromley MP as a room leader, she moved bed onto another nursery, and then saw the job advertised with us as deputy manager and after a very successful interview, the role was offered and Daniella excepted!
She has just completed her third week with us and is absolutely smashing it! She is getting to know the staff team, our amazing children and their equally amazing families, and she is beginning to get a hold of what is expected of her in her role ⭐️
Thank you for being a part of our team!
