Us Our Schools Beyond the Classroom Contact Reflections Day Nursery & Forest School – A letter from the Founder “I’m delighted to have this opportunity to introduce you to Reflections. It’s a school where we do things a little differently. We draw our inspiration from the pre-schools of Reggio Emilia in northern Italy. These schools are world-famous for providing children with the very best in childcare and education. We also draw much inspiration from the forest nurseries of Denmark, renowned for their wonderful outdoor work with young children. We work too with the Early Years Foundation Stage – the national guidance for working with children from birth to five. So we give children the opportunity to develop across as many areas of learning as possible. Our unusual and innovative approach has previously won us the accolade of ‘Nursery World UK Nursery of the Year’ in 2009/10 (the only time we’ve entered). So how is Reflections Nursery different? …” READ THE LETTER MARTIN PACE, NURSERY DIRECTOR VISIT THE WEBSITE About Reflections Day Nursery & Forest School Reflections Day Nursery & Forest School in Worthing provides care and education for children aged 3 months to 8 years.
