WHAT WILL MY CHILD DO AT PRE-SCHOOL?

• Mostly your child will 'learn through play'.  The best way to see this is to come and visit - please feel free to drop in.

• We are good at planning activities which build on the children's preferences and stage of development and so each week we have a different theme.
• Each session is based on a routine so children quickly become familiar and feel secure and confident, and feel able to try new things.

• Each day we set out a range of activities which the children can choose from and can include  home corner,  sand and water play, books,  construction toys, table play, writing, physical and outdoor play.  

• We encourage children to join in group activities too.  This develops their speaking and listening skills, concentration, self-confidence and respect for others.  The activities include  songs, rhymes and music, snack time, story time and   counting.
• All of our work with the children is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum which covers a child's education and development from 0 to the end of Reception year at school.
