The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne

At The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne we offer Organic Food, Forest School and Cooking Lessons

Organic

As a group we have always cared about the food we serve every day and the positive impact this has on our children’s mental and physical health.  Our chefs care about where their ingredients come from and are passionate about great, varied menus that minimise processed foods and unhealthy additives.  It is a natural step for your nursery to also think about the impact our served food has on nature and the environment, providing even more learning opportunities for the children whilst championing good practice where the customer and environment are placed together.

Our children will learn how to grow, tend and harvest their own produce in our Grow Our Own Club.  Key learnings include:

• The different environments plants need in order to grow
• The different types of fruit and vegetables that grow at certain times of the year
• How to cook and use their produce for eating.

Forest School

Our Forest School offers many benefits and supports children in their development. These include:

• An appreciation and understanding of the natural world, promoting outdoor activities and well-being
• Multi-sensory experiences in the outdoors stimulate sensory development
• Early education about ecological systems and sustainable practices
• Opportunities for active play and exploration, promoting overall physical fitness

Cookery

Our Cooking Club nursery offers the skills, smells and tastes achieved from home cooking that instils a lifelong pleasure in making and enjoying delicious foods to support well-being and all-round health.

Learning to cook at a young age is thoroughly enjoyed by the children and is an excellent, engaging way to build basic math skills such as counting eggs or measuring water.  By exploring their senses, an adventurous palate grows, along-with confidence and a whole host of homemade goodies that are proudly brought home for everyone to enjoy.

Your nursery is equipped with specialist children’s cooking and baking equipment that are designed for the budding chef, meaning they are safe and have easy grip handles, ready to support the children’s culinary adventures.
