Key Information
​2 Year Olds
Our setting caters for children as young as 2 years of age, with full integration in the setting. Working on a 1:4 ratio, the children will have complete opportunity to access all activities on offer as well as being supported in their style of play. There is the option of quiet time with in the setting for children that need that extra rest, we also fully support and nurture toilet training for all children.
​3-4 Year Olds
​
Working on a 1:8 ratio, as the children progress through the setting, we work on promoting children's independence. We encourage children to try things for themselves, explore activities that are out of their comfort zone, initiate play and work on building the important social skills they will need as they grow. We also start to promote being helpful towards others and doing little tasks through out the day like, checking if lunch is ready, helping to prepare snack, choosing the story at group time.
School Leavers
​
In their final year before they depart the setting, we will work on a number of skills to get them ready for the next adventure. These may include, social skills, name recognition, promoting independence, creativity and pre mathematical skills. We also give the children plenty of opportunities to grow and develop their knowledge about the world around them both inside the setting and out and about exploring.
We have good communication with the local schools, which can aid the transition process.
