About Us

 

 

Activities

Technology is used thoughtfully within our setting. Access to digital resources is limited and primarily adult-led, reflecting our understanding that many children already experience a wide range of technology at home. Educators monitor each child’s technological development in partnership with parents, ensuring alignment with curriculum guidelines.

We are deeply committed to nurturing children’s creativity. Through exploration and investigation, children are encouraged to engage in messy play, with daily opportunities to express and develop their own creative ideas.

The rhythm of our day provides a secure and supportive structure. Our free-flow approach empowers children to make choices about how and where they play. We follow their interests—whether in music, storytelling, yoga, cooking, or circle games—valuing their ideas and allowing them to take the lead.

During periods of free play, educators sensitively support each child in working towards their individual learning goals, enhancing and extending their play experiences.

Children are also encouraged to participate in focused, adult-led activities. These are carefully planned around the children’s interests, providing meaningful opportunities to support and promote their ongoing development.

We are a term time only setting open from 9am until 3pm and offer a breakfast club from 8.15am at the Community Centre Setting.
