The Pre-School Room (3-5 years)
The Pre-School room is set in a large room on the first floor of the building, and is a continuation of the previous rooms with a strong emphasis on the child's independent learning and self help skills. This room operates several areas of learning:
- Numeracy
- Creative
- Construction
- Emergent Writing
- Book Corner
Role Play- Messy Area
- ICT (Information Communication Technology)
- Knowledge and Understanding of the World
The children can enjoy daily planned activities that access many resources and areas to feed their natural thirst for knowledge and to aid their development in all areas of learning. These children also enjoy the benefits of the outdoor play area, garden and fields.
The School Room
The School room is an additional room to the pre-school unit which is utilised during the day for adult focused directed activities. Throughout the day small groups of children and their key worker can enjoy time together and staff can monitor and assess the children's development.
School children up to the age of 11 years use this room after being collected from the local school (Meir Heath Primary School).
After a healthy tea the children can choose to either play with their friends or study, the School room is fully equipped for all the needs of this age group and of course the children can also utilise the outdoor play areas and fields.
