GLF Schools was founded in 2012 in order to enable the federation of Glyn School (an academy in 2011) and Danetree Junior School. Together, we began our journey to become a MAT of more than 1000 talented staff working with over 10,000 children in 40 schools across 5 regions in southern England.

Nursery

Whyteleafe School Nursery - Rainbows

 

We are proud of our caring and nurturing nursery and can offer you and your child a wonderful start to their learning journey.

Our nursery is very well resourced and benefits from a large fenced outdoor area which is partially covered, a smaller outdoor covered space as well as a large open plan classroom.  Our children are given the freedom to take their learning either inside or outside as we operate a free flow system between the indoor and outdoor areas, whatever the weather.  We are excited to offer the children the opportunity to take part in our Forest School sessions where they will get the chance to play in puddles, explore muddy areas, climb trees, make keepsakes using tools, build fires, play team games and take part in sensory activities.

Our learning environment promotes quality interactions, ignites curiosity and motivation for learning and exposes children to use their independent learning and investigative skills.  Topics and themes are carefully planned to capture the children's interest and imaginations and our experienced team works hard to ensure the children feel safe, happy and supported.  We strive hard to guide and scaffold your child to become a confident, independent and active learner who is physically and emotionally healthy.

We develop positive relationships with parents through our transition arrangements including home/zoom visits and value our parents as partners to ensure the best possible start for your child within our nursery.
