UCC Nursery School
652-3650
The United Church of Christ Nursery School was founded in 1965. The school is sponsored by the United Church of Christ in Bayberry. The school is nonsectarian and open to all. The Church Council appoints a Board of Directors who then employs a professional Director. Together they carry out the planning and administration of the school.
 

PROGRAM

Our Nursery School programs provide a safe and nurturing environment that promotes the physical, social, emotional and intellectual development of each child. This is accomplished through a variety of activities and experiences appropriate to each child's developmental stage.

 Learning takes place as children touch, manipulate, and experiment with a variety of materials and interact with teachers and classmates. Creative expression is encouraged with emphasis placed on the process, not necessarily the product. All activities include (as a goal) the development of self-esteem and mutual respect.

 Field trips and classroom visitors expand the children's knowledge of their world. A snack is provided by the parents each school day, and children are sometimes encouraged to help with preparation of the snack.

 An outdoor, fenced-in play area with play equipment is provided. The playground was rennovated in 1998 and is accessible to those with special needs. The wooded area behind the church is used for nature walks and gardening. Outdoor activities are planned daily, weather permitting.
 

SCHOOL POLICIES

UCC Nursery School requires that your child be 2 years of age for the Playgroup and 3 and 4 years of age for the Nursery School programs all by December 1 of year of enrollment. Enrollment is limited and based on a first come, first served basis. We reserve the right to cancel and/or combine one or more classes if enrollment is insufficient.

 A two weeks written notice must be given to the Director before withdrawal of a child. Tuition is due for those two weeks. Full tuition is due regardless of a child's attendance.

 All children entering the 3 and 4 year old programs must be toilet trained.
