Early years

'Play is child's work'. The first years at the school, from 3 - 7 are a vitally important time in a child's life - the time when she/he takes the first steps from the security of the family into the outside world.

We believe children at this stage of development learn best by being actively involved in high-quality play. They need time and space to progress in their thinking, consolidate what they have learned, re-visit and regress at times at their own pace, and follow their interests and enthusiasm.


  


We aim to give children opportunities to do this in a warm, secure, loving environment that respects the needs of the individual child and fosters their development as a member of the community.
