They may be small, but they are unique!

Whether it’s playing with shapes, splashing in water, or stacking up tumbling blocks, your little one will want to express their curiosity in their own way.

This is why your child’s key person will observe them and plan activities to suit their individual needs. By choosing activities that inspire their natural curiosity, we also get them to express their growing energy and encourage their development.

Our childcare team will work with you to help your child settle into nursery life. By working closely with parents and adjusting our activities to suit each child’s routine, we make their move from home to nursery as calm as possible. We know how precious those first few years can be. So, it’s only right your little one receives the very best childcare. Here, you can expect just that.

As your child progresses, they are introduced to a further four areas:

• Literacy:

Writing their own name for the first time. Reading their first bedtime story with you. These moments are precious and important, which is why we’ve chosen the Read, Write Inc. programme to help pre-school children to develop their literacy skills with the support of our knowledgeable and caring pre-school staff.

• Maths

• Expressive Arts & Design

  • Personal, Social & Emotional Development 

  • Physical Development:

Keeping your child active is important for their health and their independence. With the partnership of Isla Bikes, we will encourage your child to be active in a safe environment and to have fun on two wheels. 

  • Communication & Language:

Whether your child’s a little chatterbox or not, the programme we’ve developed with Ican, one of our partner charities, will encourage them to develop their speech at their own speed

Three, four and five – the wonder years

Three, four and five – the wonder years

A time when your bundle of joy becomes a bundle of energy.

Inquisitive, curious and keen to learn. We embrace this time and make the transition as smooth as possible by balancing the excitement of nursery with a subtle, more structured approach to school learning.

This gradually introduces your child to academic learning, but in a place that feels familiar and supportive. A gently-does-it approach to inspire the best from every child.
