The babies also get taken for walks and enjoy outdoor play in our garden.

The Toddler Room

Here in the toddler room a toddler begins to mix, make friends and explore with others. At this stage we offer new and exciting activities, which adds more stimulation to their fun packed day. We encourage the children to learn and enjoy activities such as sand and water play. Arts and crafts, using pens, pencils, crayons, play dough etc. In this room they also enjoy learning to bake and enjoy outdoor activities such as visiting the train station and nature walks. We help them with sharing and co-operating in small groups. Children participate at their own pace, carefully observed and encouraged by staff.

Tweenie Room
The Junior Room

This room is full of life and opportunities to learn, play and explore. The day will vary between activities that the children choose and those planned to develop their skills by the staff. Concentration and confidence is developing now so we can gently introduce some more structure and independence. The room offers messy play, floor toys, home corner and a quiet corner to read or listen to music.

The Pre-school Room

The focus is on preparing this age for school with emphasis on structured and free-play based on themed projects. They have learned the basics of sharing and co-operation and how to mix and make friends. They are confident and active. They can concentrate well and enjoy choosing what to play with. The activities are designed to help them experience the joy of learning while they play. The equipment and different materials selected provide your child with a variety of learning experiences and allow them to acquire and develop deeper knowledge and wider skills.


We will take time to study every child as an individual, carefully noting his or her routine, changing, feeding, sleeping, personal preferences and milestone achievements.
