It is the Preschools aim to provide a flexible routine for the children. Children are offered free choice of a wide variety of quality resources and activities, We believe that care and education are equally important. The routines and activities that make up our day are provided in ways that;

• Ensure that children are kept safe
• Help the children to form friendships with other children and adults by being part of a group
• Help each child to feel that they are a valued member of the setting
  
  We believe that children learn by playing and exploring, being active, and through creative and critical thinking which takes place both indoors and outside. The sessions are organised so that children have free choice, and can play with a wide variety of resources and activities. Each day children will have the opportunity for messy play, painting and other crafts, construction, small world play, role play, mark making, books, a relaxing cosy corner for resting, and outdoor play.

We celebrate children's birthdays.
We celebrate national days & traditions of the U.K. along with exploring traditions of other countries and cultures as an introduction to the the world & it's people.

We also enjoy baking, exploring & learning about the local area, dancing and music. We like to take our children out of the setting on occasions, for example a walk to the local shops to buy snack ingredients, local park, conservation area along with our Beach School sessions. Risk assessments are carried out for these walks and can be located on our walls. Although our sessions are very flexible, we do have a routine as this helps children to feel settled. Children enjoy a snack and a drink each morning, sitting at the table with each other giving it a family meal atmosphere. 
Children learn to gain independence and self help skills to ensure that they are ready for life out of Preschool and after children have left Preschool......putting coats on, taking shoes off to put wellies on, dressing themselves in outdoor gear. Helping to prepare snack, serving and clearing away when finished etc.
