Beatle Woods

We are an outdoor “Outstanding” nursery in Balsall Common. We are a term time setting and offer places for 2-5 year olds and flexi sessions for older children.

We’re gradually settling in to our new space. Enabling and empowering children to decide is fundamental to our practice and underpins all we do. This promotes children’s social and emotional health and welfare whilst ensuring they have high levels of independence and self esteem.

Beatle Woods 24/25 launched! 🎉
A pleasure, to welcome families, old & new. We’re also thrilled to announce our new cabin, built by friends at HS2/BBV. We can’t thank them enough for their tireless work and emphasise how transformative this will be for us. #HS2 #BBV #EarlyYears

On this first day of #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek , watching the news, I find myself wishing we could stop talking about COVIDs impact on “children’s learning” and just talk about “children”.

Research shows that unstructured play is one of the best ways to help children learn and grow

In this crazy world there is one place where we love to play 🌳🌿

Children 'just playing' 🤔 think again, Jean-Jacques Rousseau was well ahead of the times when he said this in 1762! @UpstartScot Great way to start this chapter @MHBplayscotland 👍

Play is how children learn to communicate, problem solve, test ideas, and get along with others. ~ ZERO TO THREE

“If you don’t believe in the magic of children, and if you won’t drink from its tap, it’s like leaving it running, standing back and watching all the goodness of childhood just going to waste...”

Children’s social, psychological, academic and physical health is positively impacted when they have daily contact with nature. ~ The Natural Learning Initiative

[Can I Go And Play Now? @canigoandplay]

Play is the flame of childhood. It’s a simple and as complicated as that...

Findings indicate that exposure to ordinary natural settings in the course of after-school and weekend activities may be widely effective in reducing attention deficit symptoms in children.

Well done, Edinburgh!

Evidence report on COVID19 & children’s play shows that benefits of children playing outside outweigh risks & calls for evidence based decisions. The report, prepared at the request of the Play Safety Forum is here https://t.co/hMpIJbcLh6 @MareeToddMSP @ClydesdAileen @JohnSwinney

“If anything should be learnt from lockdown it is that schools should never be the same, school should be so much more than just the place you get your grade. I think schools need to see beyond standardised tests and look at building each student as a well rounded person.”
