| Acorn
Integrated Nursery Unit is a new pre-school centre, which had a very
successful opening on 3 September 2001. The Nursery Unit is located
in the grounds of Acorn Integrated Primary School, Carrickfergus.
Nursery accommodation comprises a recently extended mobile classroom and secure, enclosed outdoor play area. The recent extension to the main Play Room houses a Parent/Staff Room and a Quiet Room, ideal for story time. Mr Barney Evans is principal of both Acorn Integrated Primary School and Acorn Integrated Nursery Unit. The Nursery teacher is Mrs Anna Rolloos. The Nursery day begins at 8.45am and ends at 11.30am. The day is structured to provide the children with every opportunity to explore and investigate a wide variety of materials, while at the same time enabling them to interact with other children of their own age in a friendly, safe and secure environment. The Nursery curriculum is designed to promote the following areas: Language development, Personal, Social and Emotional development, Creative/Aesthetic development, Early Mathematical Experience, Early Experience in Science and Technology, Physical development and Knowledge and Appreciation of the Environment. The children who attend Acorn Integrated Nursery are educated in a happy, stimulating atmosphere. The individual needs of each child are addressed and their differing cultures are respected. |
