The Banbury Cross holds many secrets and Child First at Banbury is no different. Since it became Child First in January 2007 major changes have taken place.
The building has been adapted and altered to provide a real opportunity for children to explore, discover and learn in a challenging but safe and secure environment.
Parents are welcome too, coffee and wireless connection makes settling in and working more than possible. Or just coming in to sing French rhymes and join in our multi national team of staff, children and parents.
The children can now safely watch food being prepared (and join in)and realise that good food is freshly prepared. The garden has changed beyond recognition from a bumpy enclosed space to a place where children can grow and discover - plant and run.
And even more importantly, the staff team has grown, in number and confidence, and now provide a real learning experience from the youngest baby to the most active five year old. So from brick building to Monet, from treasure baskets to French days - Banbury Child First really is changing acceptable to exceptional.
