Our Early Years Foundation Stage

Our Foundation Stage is made up of Nursery and Reception children aged 3 – 5 years and is known collectively as ‘The Early Years Foundation Stage’ (EYFS). 

The EYFS is a vitally important stage of children’s early development as it is during these years that children begin to develop the learning attitudes, skills, social integration and independence on which they will build the rest of their education.

We provide high quality, purposefully planned play opportunities that enable children to learn and flourish. Our spacious indoor and outdoor learning areas enable children to be active learners, become independent and develop critical thinking skills. 

We have amazing learning spaces, including a purpose built EYFS indoor classroom connecting to a beautiful woodland garden area with far reaching views. We have a large school field and two large playgrounds with a climbing frame, climbing wall and exercise equipment. We place equal importance on both the inside and outside environments ensuring that each area stimulates the children’s imaginations.
