KINDERGATEN SCHOOL (NURSERY)
Foundation Stage (PP1 and PP2)
We understand the importance of providing a great start to a child’s education, igniting their passion for learning as they grow.
Maryjoy offers an academic but fun, stimulating and caring environment, ensuring your child’s safety, as they develop the confidence needed to take on new challenges. We recognise that each child is uniquely talented. Our goal is to encourage them to achieve their full potential across a wide range of activities, developing new talents as well as stretching the things that they are already good at.
In our Foundation Stage, dedicated teachers encourage and promote ‘active’ learning throughout all the areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage,celebrating each child’s achievements and preparing them for a smooth and happy transition into the Primary School.
The curriculum sets out what most children are expected to achieve by the end of the Foundation Stage. It is organised in seven areas of learning:
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
- Physical Development
- Communication and Language
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Knowledge and Understanding of the World
- Expressive Arts and Design
Our experienced teachers encourage and extend each child’s natural curiosity and enthusiasm as they build their range of skills. Over the course of the day, your child will learn in groups, pairs and individually across an array of different activities as we discover their learning styles and preferences. Digital Technology is woven seamlessly into the lessons, ensuring that all children are confident interacting with technology as a learning tool.
