Welcome to Nursery
We have two classes in our Nursery Apple Class and Pear Class.
Mrs O'Neill is our Nursery Teacher.
We are very lucky to have several Teaching Assistants who support the children with their learning.
Nursery Teacher's Message
Hello, welcome to our Nursery, a warm and happy place where little learners begin their school journey with confidence and joy. I am Mrs O'Neill and alongside our caring team we create a safe, nurturing environment where every child is valued, encouraged, and celebrated for who they are. Through play, exploration, and gentle routines, we help children develop curiosity, independence, and a love of learning. We look forward to working closely with families and sharing many smiles, discoveries, and special moments together as your child grows and thrives with us.
Sessions
08:45 am - 11:45 am
12:15 pm - 15:15 pm
If your child has a full time nursery place they will stay in school for the dinner break you can choose to either provide a packed lunch for them or you can pay for a School Dinners for more information about our Meal options please see our School Meals page here.
Full time places are granted on the basis of funding being agreed you can find out more about this here.
If you are entitled to 30 hour funding there will be a variation on your pick up times as the dinner time sessions will be included in the 30 hours.
Attendance and Absences
Although nursery is not a statutory requirement, the Local Authority expect that a minimum of 80% attendance is maintained to prevent funding from being withdrawn.
If your child’s attendance falls under that threshold, their place will be at risk.
Please report your child's absence by calling the office on 01706 647923 option 1 and leaving a message on our absence line.
You can also report an absence through the parent portal on Arbor or sending an email to the school office Office@greenbank.rochdale.sch.uk
