A LOCAL nursery maintained its good rating by the governing body following the inspection in February.
St Joseph’s Nursery, based on Doncaster Road, had a total of 143 children on its roll at the time of inspection.
A report states: “Children are eager to come to the setting and are well cared for.
“Staff greet children and welcome them into the setting. Children feel safe. They have a sense of belonging and happily wave goodbye to their parents and carers.
“Staff sit on the floor among children as they arrive and settle.
“Children learn to listen and respond in two-way interactions with staff. Children learn to take turns and develop social behaviour.
“Staff tune into children’s language and repeat key words, such as ‘yellow’, so that children hear the correct pronunciation.
“The environment is stimulating and well organised. Staff create a wide range of experiences and activities for children to explore so that they become enthusiastic learners.”
