At Rachel Keeling Nursery School, we work very hard to establish strong and warm relationships with our families from day one. This has stood us in good stead during lockdown in its various forms. However, Covid has presented us with opportunities and challenges – our Home Learning page on our website being one of them.

As well as keeping communication going with all our families, we wanted to create a one-stop ‘shop’ where they could access ideas, see familiar faces and have fun.
