Welcome To Early Years
Our Early Years campus provides a safe, secure, and nurturing environment that fosters a love of learning as students build a strong foundation across all areas of development. We cultivate strong, successful partnerships between parents and teachers, supported by an experienced and enthusiastic team of professional practitioners.
The facilities available to our students are truly exceptional. Students engage in The Curiosity Approach, exploring a thoughtfully designed, enabling environment. This includes a fully-fledged farm where children can interact with animals and learn about plant growth, and The Green Planet, home to lizards, sugar gliders, and rabbits, which students visit daily. To further support cross-curricular learning, students have access to STEAM rooms and a beautiful library where they can fully immerse themselves in reading.
In addition, our EYFS classrooms embrace the concept of hygge, which revolves around creating a cosy, welcoming, and warm environment that promotes comfort and well-being. This approach uses thoughtful design choices to enhance students' emotional and mental comfort, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and ready to learn.
The personal, social, and emotional development of our students is nurtured through active learning, play, exploration, creativity, and critical thinking. Children are encouraged to investigate, be imaginative, and innovate, fostering a deeper understanding of the world.
The Early Years Foundation Stage Framework (EYFS) provides learning goals in areas such as Literacy, Maths, Communication and Language, and an enriched Phonics Programme, which students in Foundation Stage 1 and Foundation Stage 2 work towards. Through Arc Pathway, parents receive weekly updates with photos from their child’s teacher, keeping them informed of their child’s development and unique experiences at school.
Our EYFS team is dedicated to supporting each child’s growth and curiosity, building a strong foundation for lifelong learning. I look forward to celebrating a successful school year filled with meaningful milestones as each child embarks on their learning journey.
