Learning Through Play

Children are naturally inquisitive and we are very keen to develop this by providing a stimulating environment where your child will learn and develop through play.

Freedom of play is important to us and children are given lots of choice of activities.  We do not believe in putting pressure on children, but we do encourage them to choose from a wide range of resources designed to extend their learning.

Activities in our Baby, Toddler and Pre-School Rooms, are all carefully planned to meet the different developmental stages, paying close attention to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum.

In addition, we have our lovely and spacious Escape Room.  We use this for small groups of children to experience special adult led learning activities but it can also be quickly transformed into a large physical area for the children to express themselves.  Events involving the whole nursery are also held here, such as our monthly festivals, our Teddy Bears’ Picnic, our Royal Wedding Celebration etc., all of which you are welcome to attend. The room also has a large electronic interactive ‘Smart Board’ which has a range of learning opportunities designed for all ages.

As you would expect from a teaching nursery, our highly qualified staff bring fresh and innovative ideas to the planning of each day and are particularly keen to increase your child’s awareness of the world around them.

We firmly believe in the importance of fresh air and make daily use of our outside play area and the more extensive school fields and organize regular trips and visits to broaden your child’s horizons.

Play is where children learn important social skills of caring, sharing, turn taking and communication and our activities are all carefully designed to promote these skills.
