Classes
In our Nursery we cater for children aged 2 to 4. Our younger children join our Butterflies group and have their own dedicated staff and room. Our group sizes are small and our staff ratio is 1:3 and we create a gentle, homely atmosphere that children feel safe and confident within. We provide a multi sensory learning environment with plenty of open ended resources to explore. A strong emphasis is placed upon developing communication, social and physical skills.
Our 3-4 year olds join our Ladybirds room, where they are taught by a qualified teacher. We are able to give each child a high level of personal attention because of our high staff to children ratios. A balance of adult/child led activities is provided, linked to the children’s ongoing interests and needs. Children learn best through first-hand experiences and simple science investigations, cooking sessions, gardening, block play and play with natural materials such as sand and water, form part of our regular activities. Children are encouraged to think creatively and challenge themselves. Staff warmly encourage children to persevere and to try different approaches to achieve success.
