Nursery Pastoral Care

Pastoral care is a priority and is reflected and embedded in all aspects of nursery life. We aim to give our boys the best start to their education by creating a secure and happy learning environment. Our pastoral care develops skills for life as boys learn to be part of a group while retaining their individuality.

There are clear expectations and we encourage a co-operative approach to all activities showing respect for each other. We have focussed adult-led activities helping the boys to learn how to share, recognise their own emotions and emotions in others. The boys are shown how to solve disagreements and discuss how they can solve a problem with turn taking or sharing, what the right thing to do is and how our actions make ourselves and others feel.

The Little Wetherby Golden Rules:

  1. We are gentle
  2. We are kind and helpful
  3. We listen
  4. We share and take turns
  5. We are polite
