Our Curriculum

Planning

boy painting Our activities are planned using the government's “Early Years Foundation Stage” guidance which covers children aged 0 − 5 years and continues on into the School Reception Year.

Our children are offered activities through a ‘Continuous Curriculum’ supplemented by long term plans following the ‘Flow of the Year’. Medium and short term (weekly and daily) plans are adapted to the needs and interests of the children. Plans are displayed for you to read. Through these, we encourage all areas of learning and growth in both self-esteem and social skills. Planned activities take place both in and out of doors as appropriate.

Activities & Facilities

Activities include (but are not limited to!) painting, drawing, music and movement, role play, cooking, crafts, water/sand play, construction toys, singing, games, visits out and visitors in and computer work.

We are very fortunate in our Nurseries to have excellent outdoor facilities and use them as much as possible.
A quiet corner where books are available is always on offer, as well as activities to help the development of reading and writing skills.

To ensure consistency of approach, we have policies covering every area within the pre-school, including Special Needs, Admissions, and Parental Involvement etc. These are always available for you to read. We have received extremely complimentary OFSTED inspections.
