Saint Nathaniel's Academy

At Saint Nathaniel's Academy, we have 60 places in Reception, two classes of 30. We have Early Years Blossoms with Mrs Pattinson, Mrs Bryan and Mrs Rowe and Early Years Willows with Mrs Podmore and Mrs Smith.

Our children learn through play and guided activities. We observe the children in their play and use Evidence Me to make assessments, we call these, 'Wow Moments!' The children take part in daily Read Write Inc sessions and have 1:1 home reading weekly. We develop our writing through fine motor activities, squiggle while you wiggle, dough disco, time to draw and write dance. Our fantastic continuous provision gives us a rich learning experience through play and focuses on our key interests and our half termly topics.
