The Nursery's Routine
At Jack in the Box Nursery we ensure a wide range of stimulating activities are available for all ages. These are designed to promote and broaden key aspects of a child's development.
Each day is planned and implemented by the managers and key workers to satisfy structured overall educational and development goals. The routine varies depending on the nursery room and the age and stage of development of the individual child. The routine below provides a guide.
