Taking their first steps…

Purposeful play features strongly in good Pre-School education.

Through observations of children’s learning and interests, staff are guided in the selection of materials and equipment to ensure that, during their play, children encounter the learning experiences that suit their needs. This allows children to be creative, explore and investigate materials, to experiment, problem solve and reason. We also plan cultural topics to raise awareness of different cultures and traditions.

Children in the Pre-School will regularly integrate with the rest of the school including lunch times and the Friday Assembly. After their time in the Pre-School the children will be fully prepared to make their next steps into the Reception year.
