Goose Green Nursery, can you recommend it?

[Steph]

My 3 year old has been offered a place at both Goose Green Nursery and Ammott Road Nursery, Jan start.

Would really, really appreciate your comments and experience of either, good or bad.

Thanks a million

Hi Steph

I am a member of the PTA at Goose Green.

On Mon 7th Dec, we have a coffee morning planned and there will also be some parents looking round the school.

Please come along at 9.15ish and speak to parents whose children just started nursery/school in Sept.

Some of these parents were also worried at 1st, but I believe we are all honest with our opinions and will freely give them to you if asked

Any queries please pm me. Thanx

Hi PippaD

Yes I have the 7th in my diary but thanks for the reminder anyway...

Will be good to chat to the September start parents

Thanks again

Steph

Hi Steph, my child started at GG in september, I won't be at coffee morning as have to be at work but happy to be PM'd. We are very happy with his teachers and the leadership of the school. He didn't go to the nursery so I have no personal experience of it but it has the most amazing playground and seems a happy place and benefits from being involved in school events; xmas fair, cake sales, summer carnival, abel and cole scheme etc. I have put my daughters name down for a place when she is old enough.

Hi Steph

I think there is a meeting at the school today for Jan start parents - I know there is for new reception starters, not 100% sure if includes nursery but in any event there will be a couple of current parents there to chat to.

Cheers

PS: Are there any other mums on here who's child is starting the nursery in Jan?

My daughter has also been offered a morning place for January. I think we will be accepting it and would be interested to meet any other mums with children starting then Steph.

what is the address of the Goose Green Nursery so i can attend in the morning, thank you?

The nursery is on the same site as the school on Tintagel Crescent; if approaching from Goose Green Roundabout, Tintagel is the road right next to the roundabout with charity shop on one corner and estate agent opposite that, if coming from ED station side, turn up Elsie Road and Tintagel is first left.

If the school gates are closed just press the buzzer and the office will buzz you in. Go to the office if coming only for the tour or the after school club room for the coffee morning plus the tour (this is in the building to your left as you walk in).

Hi

My son attended the wonderful Amott Rd pre school and still misses it! Does anyone know of an afternoon 'pre school' like Amott Rd - in the afternoons. My son is at nursery for mornings only but really needs a couple of afternoons a week also. Does anyone have any suggestions. Many thanks
