Kindergarten

Our kindergarten curriculum follows the UK Early Years Foundation Stage using a learning through play approach and covers these six areas of learning:

  • Personal, social and emotional development
  • Communication, language and literacy
  • Numeracy, problem solving and reasoning
  • Knowledge and understanding of the world
  • Physical development
  • Creative development
When your child joins kindergarten, parents are required to attend as a duty parent.  You will be an important asset to the teachers as you help with activities and guide children throughout the session.  There are a limited number of non-duty places for full-time working parents.
