From the Rainbow Nursery School - The Pavilion
Since its founding in 1979, Rainbow has served as the hub of the neighbourhood.
Mrs. Julia Hunter founded the Rainbow organisation, and in 2016, she handed the reins to Mrs. Lavinia Wilkins.
Mrs. Hunter continues to work part-time with Rainbow as a member of the staff.
According to our concept, children must feel secure, content, safe, and appreciated in order to reach their greatest potential.
Through research and engagement, we hope to foster a love of learning in our students, helping them develop strong peer relationships and social skills that will help them succeed in primary school and beyond.
Our electronic learning diaries, which will strengthen the connection between home and school, are currently being introduced.
The RAINBOW schedule adheres to a fundamental rhythm of learning through unstructured play and adult-led activities while being flexible.
We regularly host viewing sessions and parent consultations so that parents may get to know one another and talk to the experts about their child's progress.
All groups (morning and afternoon) attend a Christmas concert, a school outing, and a sports day during the summer term, and we encourage parent engagement on these days.
Every child needs to participate in a carefully thought-out schedule of experiences according to their developmental stage.
The play activities offered by RAINBOW, which take into account their particular needs, are a crucial component of the curriculum.
