Activities

• Engaging Your Children

  We know children need to be engaged throughout the day – it improves their problem-solving skills, teaches them to ask for help, and encourages them to learn from one another.

  That’s why we offer a range of entertaining and educational activities:

  • Indoor – Aerobics, dance, role-play, sand and water play, music from around the world and regular baking sessions.
  • Community visits – We arrange visits from the local police and fire brigade to educate children on public services.
  • Gardening – We teach our children to harvest vegetables and plant flowers.

  Outdoor Play

  We always encourage our children to play outside. Playing outside develops their gross motor skills and keeps them connected to nature.

  Our children are able to release energy outdoors whilst building friendships as they follow their own personal interests.

  Special Events

  Our children develop their understanding of the world by taking part in special events throughout the year.

  We are visited by Pets At Home, who bring creepy crawlies and rainforest snakes for children to see.

  Supervised Brushing

  Our nursery is participating in the Let’s Get Brushing supervised toothbrushing programme where children are supervised by nursery staff to brush their teeth once per day.

The programme will support children, age 2-5 years old to establish positive routines to maintain good oral health throughout life, reducing the risk of tooth decay and extractions.

The Let’s Get Brushing programme ensures that children have access to toothbrushes and toothpaste but also to support the basic life skill and routine of toothbrushing.
