A day in the nursery

A day in the nursery

In nursery schools children learn some elementary things such as numbers, colours and letters. Apart from that, babies play, have meals and sleep there. Whatever they do, there is always someone keeping an eye on them: a nursery school teacher or an assistant. Here is an example of a typical day in a nursery school in Great Britain:
