Play
Children learn through play, therefore play is a very important part of our nursery day, both Indoors and outdoors.
Play allows children to explore and express ideas, emotions and feelings, socialise with their peers and develop in all the 7 areas of learning.
Play enables children to practice skills preparing them for the next stage in their development.

Grow
Children grow by playing and exploring which enables them to develop their curiosity, to represent experiences and allows them to risk take in a supervised and safe environment. Play encourages them to be Active Learners, developing their concentration, persistence and sense of achievement. These lead the child to grow into a creative and critical thinker, allowing them to have their own ideas, make links and connections in their experiences and to review what they are doing.
