Whilst our babies and toddlers are settled in by practitioners, our preschool children take part in a self-registration.
After self-registration, children may choose which activities to explore and engage in. Staff play alongside the children to guide and extend their learning, while following the children’s interests.
Activities are planned for both indoors and outdoors.
During the morning there will be a ‘Guided Learning Activity’. This is led by a key person who has specific targets in mind for the children. These targets have been set after close observations of the children to assess their needs or their next stage of learning in a particular area.
We also have a designated snack time where healthy eating and independence are promoted.
In addition, there is a period where all the children gather together with a member of staff, to talk about specific activities or events, to celebrate birthdays and other special times and achievements and to sing.
