We were thrilled to officially welcome all of our new Nursery and Reception students to Ark John Keats Academy this past week. All of them are only beginning their incredibly long educational journeys with us. fifteen years of education at Ark John Keats, from nursery or reception to sixth form. Wow!. On Monday and Tuesday, our Reception students arrived in small groups. On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, they all arrived for a full morning and a delicious school lunch. They begin working full time on Monday, September 23. For them to get to know their new nursery and teachers well, our new Nursery students also arrived in small groups. They enjoyed exploring their nursery and using paper and pompoms to express themselves creatively.
