Welcome to our school website, we hope that you enjoy looking around. It has been designed to give you all the information you need as a parent or prospective parent,  as well as give you a good feel for what life is like at Hurst Green Infant School and Nursery.

Hurst Green Infant School and Nursery is a successful and popular school where everyone works hard to ensure that the children are safe, secure and part of a friendly and caring community. We want the children to be happy and excited about coming to school to learn and to develop their knowledge, skills and understanding across a wide curriculum. We aim to challenge and inspire our young learners and celebrate all achievements.

At Hurst Green Infant School and Nursery our focus is on:

‘Bringing out the best by caring, learning and achieving together’

We achieve this through our School Aims:

• Enabling every child to fulfil their potential by fostering a love of learning and providing a consistently high standard of teaching in a safe and stimulating environment.
• Promoting positive behaviour by having high expectations and encouraging all children to develop tolerance, mutual respect and understanding of others.
• Demonstrating an inclusive approach, ensuring that children feel safe and secure and that every member of the school community is valued.
• Ensuring children leave the school capable, confident and prepared to meet the challenge of the next stage of their education.

Our school enjoys spectacular grounds and the bright, cheerful, south-facing classrooms look directly out onto our enormous playing field with its mature oak and willow trees. Naturally, the children are encouraged to make full use of this incredible asset whatever the weather! The classrooms also have direct access to a safe and secure outdoor learning area with a large, shady canopy. This ensures that the children are given ample opportunity to learn outdoors as well as indoors. This is an important part of our learning here at Hurst Green. We are blessed with a hardworking, dedicated and creative staff that is always looking for ways to enrich the curriculum to ensure that our children develop a love for learning.

We know that you have already begun the learning process with your child and we are keen to work in partnership with you to continue this development.  This partnership begins with a warm invitation from all of us to find out more about our school. Parents/carers are always welcome to look around the school, appointments may be made at a mutually convenient time by telephoning the school office.

We look forward to welcoming you in the near future and hope you will see why we are so proud of our school and the children who come here.
