Parent partnerships in action
Events & Gallery
We invite parents into the nursery properly, right through the year. Coffee mornings. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day breakfasts. The Easter party. Sports day, which we call the Millwood Minigames. The nativity and carols in the garden at Christmas. Graduation in July. These days are the thing we are proudest of, and they are what parent partnership actually means here: you are in the building, not told about it afterwards.
Millwood Minigames
Sports Day
Every child gets a race, a medal and a crowd of parents cheering from the sidelines. The Little Explorers and the babies take part together, so an older child’s first race is often a younger one’s first time watching, and next year it will be theirs.
Every July
Graduation
Children who arrived as babies leave us in a cap and gown, in front of the people who have known them for four years. It is the one day a year that shows parents exactly what “known, not just looked after” has meant.
