glenbervie kindergarden
Sunnyside Road, Falkirk ,
Glenbervie Kindergarden and GX out of school club is a family run business which
helps to provide the best start in life for children, in a homely like
environment which promotes emotional wellbeing and togetherness. Children are at
the heart of what we do and parents and families involvement are of the upmost
importance. Glenbervie Kindergarden has been established for and providing care
to children from birth to primary seven for almost 20 years. Each of our
settings are unique and all offer the same high quality of care and education
that our parents expect. The settings have all been refurbished quite recently
to a bright, modern standard and all facilities are well resourced. Within our
settings we offer a child centered approach, we encourage the children to be
involved in their own learning and their achievements celebrated. Our staff
create happy, caring and stimulating environments in which each child can
develop, build confidence and can become more independant in their own right.
For our younger children we have a range of baby and toddler rooms, designed to
nurture and support the development of each individual child. For our older
children in the Explorer rooms, we offer a breadth of learning experiences,
where our skilled staff are confident in enhancing and deepening the child's
learning. Our out of school Clubs offer fun, stimulating environments where
children can socialise, play and relax before or after a busy day at school. Our
nurseries and out of school facilities put a strong emphasis on learning
outdoors and all settings have their own outdoor areas to support and extend
your child's learning and exploration. Adventures outwith the gardens include
visits such as, the local park, the library, garden centre or other landmarks,
this helps to build the child's sense of connection with the local community.
Our staff team have a wealth of experience and qualifications and are all
registered with the Scottish Social Services Council and have up to date PVG
checks. To ensure staff are well equipped to support the children's learning and
development, staff undergo continuous professional development. A high
percentage of our staff team are first aid trained, with us working towards all
staff being trained in this. As well as our own staff we work closely with other
professionals such as health visitor, social work, speech and language,
educational psychologist and other various agencies. Within our settings we
promote healthy eating, our snacks are varied and interesting and lunches can be
provided by an outside catering company, who follow the current 'Setting the
table' guidance. Parents also have the option to provide their own child's
lunch. We are in Partnership with Falkirk Council and can provide up to 1140
funded hours for eligible children. Click on the following link for more
