Our Team
Say hello to our team at England's Lane! Our dedicated and knowledgeable team of practitioners love to get stuck in with activities, and thrive in their respective roles. The team work together to help all children with their needs, combining all of their separate skillsets to create a fun, caring and nurturing environment!
The Nursery Pet
Say hello to our nursery pet - Herbie the tortoise!
Herbie is a lively tortoise with a big love for fresh vegetables, shell scratches and exploring the nursery. He likes to be bathed by the children using paint brushes or even tooth brushes to make sure his shell is nice and clean! Herbie not only helps the children to learn about kind and calm hands, but also how to look after animals and how to handle them!
Jofli the Bear
Say Hello to Jofli Bear - he loves to travel with our children all over the world! From the beaches of Norfolk to the Central America's, Jofli keeps our children company on holidays as a way to share his travels with all of his Scribbles friends!
Jofli uses his backpack and diary to keep track of all of his exciting and brilliant holidays - and even has an online journal and map to interact with!
If you'd like to take Jofli out for a weekend, let us know - even a simple trip to the zoo is a trip for Jofli!
