Our shared approach to Early Years.
Childhood is a stage of life to be enjoyed. Through child led learning and sensitive adult-child interactions, children’s uniqueness should be recognised and celebrated. Everything evolves holistically around the unique child as we interact and form relationships.
Adult-child interactions helps to build the foundation of knowledge built up through observations and can be built upon as we respond, play, learn and develop the child, giving them the essential knowledge that will prepare them for future success.
An enchanting environment rich in its offering of curiosity and inviting to any little explorer. The environment should offer an engagement of purposeful resources that should capture the curiosity of the unique child and should offer challenge to enable the unique child to develop further.
