OUR ROOMS
We have a number of rooms catering for different age groups and activities.
Other additional activities are also shown below.
BABIES
Baby Room - Staff Ratio 1:3
The Baby room offers a friendly relaxed family atmosphere for children, from 6 weeks to 2 years. The babies can explore and learn through one to one activities with staff and play equipment provided. Stimulation at a young age encourages happy, inquisitive babies to become confident toddlers ready to grasp the concepts of learning skills for later on in life. The babies are encouraged to join in simple activities, which improve their mental and social awareness.
Babies are regularly taken out for walks in the town, including to the duck pond, park and library.
We believe in the development of the whole child. We recognise that each child is different and that they should be allowed to develop at their own pace.
TODDLERS
Toddler Room - Staff Ratio 1:4
The Toddler room offers a friendly relaxed family atmosphere for children, from 2 years to 3 years to develop. The toddlers can explore and learn through a wide variety of planned activities.
Stimulation at a young age encourages happy, inquisitive toddlers to become confident children ready to grasp the concepts of learning skills for later on in life. The toddlers are encouraged to join in simple activities, which improve their mental and social awareness.
Music time is very special to the children and important for the development of language and coordination when the children join in the ‘action’ songs.
It is especially rewarding when one notices the most introverted child responding. Babies and Toddlers are regularly taken out for walks in the village.
PRE-SCHOOL
Pre-School - Staff Ratio 1:8
The Pre-school children aged from 3 years to 4 years have the use of three rooms: a block play and loose parts room, a role play/home environment room, and a messy room which includes playdough, clay, craft, and painting.
