This quote has always resonated with me as I feel it highlights the importance of a resilient and inclusive approach to both teaching and learning.
Every experience, every observation, every interaction is a learning experience. We are all lifelong learners and at New Hartley First School we foster, promote and admire a love of learning. We encourage all of our children to ‘dream big’ and ‘aim high’.
We pride ourselves on our welcoming and nurturing ethos and would highly recommend that any prospective parents or carers come and visit.
We would love to meet you!

We read The Hungry Caterpillar together and then sequenced the events of the story, helping us understand how a caterpillar grows and changes. The children then got creative and made their own caterpillars using a variety of materials, including paints and stickers, supporting fine motor skills with the small stickers. We also explored the story Monkey Puzzle and had some lovely discussions about whether all babies look like their parents or not! ... See MoreSee Less
