Preppies are eager little sponges, so this room offers defined play areas bursting with learning opportunities for them to soak up.

Our daily planning mirrors the growth mindset and mindfulness curriculum to prepare children for the transition to primary school; we encourage children to identify and write their names, and identify letters and numbers, whilst computers are on hand for exploration and skill development. Regular music and sports sessions continue, and we embed Spanish into the curriculum and offer weekly dance lessons to enrich the children’s learning.

We regularly update our Facebook page to keep parents updated with various activities. We also provide a calendar to engage parents in our home learning, as part of our Mini Minds Matter curriculum.

Children begin to understand how sounds promote learning to read and write. They carry out environmental walks, sound walks, explore instruments, and nursery rhymes.
