Meet your teacher
Mrs Farnell
Hello, my name is Mrs Farnell and I am the nursery teacher at Sandhill. I have worked at Sandhill for 14 years and have loved helping so many children begin their school journey. I have two boys who are six and two, we have lots of fun together and enjoy going on days out and spending time together as a family. I love reading and can’t wait to share lots of stories with you.

Class Information
We use Dojo to share photos of your child’s experiences in nursery, you can also share any achievements and special occasions from home. The children love to show their friends what they have been doing outside of nursery too. Children will need to bring a water bottle labelled with their name and appropriate clothing. We go outside come rain or shine so it’s a great idea to leave a pair of wellies at nursery for when you need them!
Areas of Learning
In nursery we learn through play. Our homely learning environment has lots for children to explore and our outside area is a great place for adventures. Our learning is centred around stories and the children’s interests. Regular circle times provide children with valuable communication skills and we have daily phonics sessions to help children become confident readers. In nursery we have lots of fun and make lasting memories.
