Weapons and super hero play

Wigwams Nursery held a forum with parents to discuss the nursery allowing children to play with guns and weapons. The aim was to review our policy and to get feedback from parents of the nursery children.   Seven parents attended and three parents gave their feedback although they couldn't attend, and three members of staff attended.  Lisa the nursery manager chaired to the forum and brought her experience and research to the meeting from her 3,000 word dissertation she had previously studied on the topic. She also brought other expert views/books on the subject to make it non bias.  Parents really benefitted from the meeting and it also gave them the chance to raise any other concerns they may have had with the nursery in an open and fair environment.
