My name is Victoria Bolton and I am the Lead Teacher here at Ribblesdale Nursery School.  I am a qualified Primary School Teacher with Early Years Professional Status and have worked in Early Years since 2011.  I have lived in the Ribble Valley all of my life and so am passionate about providing the very best early years education that links closely with the wonderful community we have here - this includes inviting visitors in, such as local health care professionals and emergency services, as well as going out into the local area to visit places such as supermarkets, churches, Clitheroe Castle and local nature reserves.  Not only as a teacher but also as a parent of two young children, I understand the importance of parents and carers being involved in their child's education as much as possible, and so I am also keen to work with parents and include them in their child's learning journey at every opportunity.  Myself and my dedicated team here at Ribblesdale Nursery School strive for the very best outcomes for each and every child we teach and our aim is to give every child the very best foundation for a life long love of learning!
