It launched in a converted barn with three playrooms, extended twoyears later and then, not content with what it had achieved so far, ithad customised premises built. All the staff were involved in the designprocess so that they would have ownership of their new workenvironment.
The new nursery opened in November 2008. It has capacity for 76children, more than doubling the original number of places. Uniqueselling points include a state-of-the-art kitchen, three outdoor areasincluding a learning orchard and a sports field. There is also anon-site training facility. Parents now have a 30-space car park on site.Parking was previously limited, so this development has helped to makethe journey to and from nursery less stressful.
