Children from Southampton Nursery Display Their Creative Artwork at Local Library

The children at Bright Horizons Portswood Day Nursery and Preschool in Southampton recently visited their local library and displayed their own artwork around diversity for the public to see. 

The artwork was on display from the end of June until July 5th and included self-portraits the children had designed of themselves to celebrate the theme of diversity in their community, with discussions around individuals’ similarities and differences.

Trudy, Nursery Manager at Bright Horizons Portswood Day Nursery and Preschool said: “It’s so important to us that our nursery children have regular visits to public spaces and build connections with the local community. This was a wonderful display for the children to express their creativity and share their artwork with the public. At Portswood nursery, we like to place a focus on each child’s wellbeing as part of our Nurture Approach and provide unique experiences for them to develop and grow.”

The Nurture Approach, which supports the Bright Beginnings Curriculum, was developed by Bright Horizons in the UK in partnership with clinical psychologist, Dr Sarah Mundy. It supports the key developmental needs of the child focusing on healthy emotional development and indicators of wellbeing.
