Partnership with Parents

Campbeltown Nursery Centre and Aqualibrium ELC aims to involve parents as much as possible in the learning and development of their child. Parents are invited to volunteer within the nursery and to actively be involved in our Parent Forum.  Parent’s will be kept up to date of their child’s learning and development through dialogue with staff, parent’s evenings, open nights, learning plans and newsletters.

It is important that the nursery staff and the parents offer, as far as possible, a unified approach in working with the children. We ask that you keep us up to date with any necessary information regarding your child.

Opportunities for Parental Involvement

  • Helping in the nursery
