A warm welcome back to nursery
Welcome to all of our children and families. It has been lovely to re-open our doors after the Summer break. The children have settled so well, and we thank our families for the role they have played in supporting their child’s transition.
Walk & Drive Past Celebration
We would like to invite all of our children who are leaving us to go to school in September, to our walk or drive past celebration on Friday 17th July. View or download the full letter below:

Support for Mark Making and Writing
We have added a new document to our Home Learning section. It’s called How to support mark making and writing at home and includes ideas you could try at home with your child.
For further information please visit the Support for Parents section of the Home Learning page.
Places Available for 2, 3 & 4 year Olds
We have places available for 2,3 and 4 year old children in September 2020.
If you are interested in a place for your child, please either message this page, email hordennursery@durhamlearning.net or telephone 0191 5865415.
If your child’s name is on our waiting list, we will be writing to you very soon to confirm their place. Unfortunately, due to current circumstances, we are unable to give any start dates. We look forward to hearing from you soon, take care and stay safe.
Free Play & Learn sessions for 2Yr olds
Our nursery has 2 year old places available from September, please get in touch if you need any further information.
2 Year Free Play and Learn Applications – September 2020 eligibility
Due to the current circumstances surrounding the Covid19 pandemic we are unable to send out Golden Tickets to those families with eligible 2 year olds for September 2020. Parents can still apply via the Parent Portal which can be found on the DCC Website. To prevent any delays in processing applications we are encouraging all parents to apply via the Portal to ensure an immediate result.
At present under government rules, only those children who are eligible to attend under the DfE vulnerable children list or Critical Workers with no alternative childcare can attend schools and settings. Parents requiring a funded two year place will be asked to complete an online application via the Parent Portal. They may require support in doing this.
The childcare team are available at childcare@durham.gov.uk to answer any queries from both providers and parents.
Phone calls to say Hi! (01.04.20)
We thought it would be a lovely idea to give our children and families a ring over the next few days to say hello. We know how much the children will be missing nursery and we are missing them too.
This call will be from your child’s key person, or a member of staff who knows them well.
Please be aware that we are unable to use the nursery phone, therefore the number will show as Withheld or No Caller ID.
We look forward to speaking to you and your child soon.
