Activities are planned weekly offering opportunities for free play.\u00a0Under 5\u2019s have a dedicated area that offers the 7 areas of learning;Communication and language development, physical development, personal, social, and emotional development, literacy development, mathematics, understanding the world, expressive arts and design. This will be offered via continuous provision and free flow. As mentioned above we have an outside space, but due to Covid restrictions children will only go outdoors at set times to maintain the bubbles we have formed. We will also have a split-level outside space which we aim to have ready by April 2021. Both outside spaces will encompass the 7 areas of learning and will be part of free flow.<\/p>\n
Children will be encouraged to participate in the planning of activities and the provision of ideas regarding equipment needs.<\/p>\n
Activities are planned in advance for all children in our care. We provide variety and diversity in order to encourage children\u2019s social and physical development. We review and amend them on a regular basis, in order to continually stimulate the children and staff and to take advantage of seasonal opportunities.<\/p>\n
