Day Nursery
The Blue Sky Day Nursery is open 51 weeks of the year and offers care for children from 6 weeks until they start school. Children have access to a wide variety of toys, games and activities which they have free access to throughout the day. Each child is given the chance to play with really messy activities including painting, junk modelling, play dough, sand and water, because of this it is best to send them in play clothes. The children also have access to construction toys such as mega blocks and k-nex, maths toys such as shape sorters and weighing scales, small world toys and many others. Every day each child is able to take full advantage of our extensive outside play areas where they are encouraged to use the climbing frame, balancing beams and bicycles but also to look at and explore nature in our gardening and mini-beast areas. The staff help the children progress from nappies through potty training and onto using their toilets at the time and pace required by the individual child and parents. We view each child as an important individual and try our best to meet their personal needs, taking guidance from parents about what a child likes and dislikes and what their next steps should be.
Pre-School
From the term after a child turns 3 they are entitled to 12.5 hours of pre-school funding. We are pleased to be able to offer children this time whilst at Blue Sky either as part of their Day Nursery day or as separate 2.5 hour sessions. Pre-school children are cared for alongside the day nursery children and as such are able to access the same care, activities and facilities as the day nursery children.
Out of School Club
Children from Market Weighton schools can access our before and after school service. Children using our before school service are able to take breakfast with us before being taken to their school. Our team then collect them from their school at the end of the day once back at Blue Sky they are offered tea and given the opportunity to play freely or take part in the organised activity. During the school holidays the children are able to come for either full or half days where they can take part in the range of planned activities, coach trips to the seaside or activity centres and also walk to the local parks.
Crèche
Children are able to take advantage of the Blue Sky facilities on an hourly basis subject to availability.
