KIMIS

At Rachel Keeling Nursery School, we pride ourselves on the strong and positive relationships we cultivate with our families. This starts very early in a child’s journey.

At the home visit (or meet-and-greet in the park during pandemic life), we find out where families are from, which languages they speak, what their family life is like and skills they may be able to share with us in school. One such skill is cooking.

We ask families to share their favourite healthy recipes, which come from all corners of the globe, on scraps of paper, screenshot from their cookery book or written down from memory.
