At Sandfield Day Nursery our large age appropriate garden contains many features which are designed to nurture children's imagination and all age groups have access on a daily basis.

Children build their imaginations in the mud kitchen and contruction zone, whilst babies have room to explore, in their own way, the purpose built garden. We have been awarded Sing and Sign accreditation which we use with our under 2s.

Parental involvement is important to us and we run regular Parent Partnership Meetings and parent training sessions.
