Annual Report
Selsey Community Nursery is a Charity that provides childcare for up to 60 children from 0 to 4 years old on weekdays from 7:30 to 6pm. The Charity was set up to offer Early Years education for the children of Selsey and the surrounding areas.
The Charity is occasionally able to offer free placements to children whose parents/carers circumstances mean that they would not otherwise be able to access nursery care or the family need additional support; these children are referred by key health professionals.
The Charity provides nutritious home cooked meals and healthy snacks. Meals are planned and produced to the current guidelines and form an important part of the children’s day.
The Charity operates from a purpose-built nursery building with three rooms, for babies, 2-3’s and pre-school. It has a large outdoor play space which acts as an integral part of children’s activities and can enormously benefit children’s mental and physical health and wellbeing. Children are able to have free-flow into the smaller covered outdoor environment so that they can enjoy the fresh air in any weather.
