Children can explore our nature trail, plant and tend to fruit and vegetables in our allotment, sculpt and build in the sandpits, bounce on the trampolines, develop their physical skills in our playground, and engaged in more focused and group activities under our learning hut.
Time to get to know you
Individual and Adaptable
Routine is central to the development of young children and each of our age groups follows its own fun and educational timetable. But we work hard to ensure that we are able to follow each child's individual needs too. Since every child and family is different we never follow a 'one method fits all' approach. Instead, we spend time with you to find out your child's own personal needs. As children grow, we adapt to their needs. Our constant reflection, evaluation, and adaptations, mean that the environment is always tailored to meet the children's needs.
