Oakgrove Nursery Welcome
Hello and welcome to the Oakgrove Nursery Web Page. We are looking forward to a busy year.
At Oakgrove we want to build upon the learning that has taken place in the home. We want to provide children with a rich variety of challenging play activities and other experiences in a stimulating environment. The focus is to allow children to learn at their own pace, gain a positive image of themselves as learners and to be able to cope with new styles of learning.
