2-5 Years

Older children have use of the rooms at the rear of the building.  Your child has free access to the garden from this open plan area which provides good space for freedom of choice with minimal restriction for all the 2-5 year group of children.  This practice is called Free-flow.

Placing minimal restriction on your child allows them to develop play and choose toys independently.  When it is your child’s choice of play, play simply becomes more meaningful than that of play chosen for them.  Your child learns best from their chosen interest combined with the knowledge of their Keyworker who works to enhance their learning experience.

Before your child progresses to the 2-5 year group, as when you started at the Nursery, we again take you through an induction procedure. This takes place with a 2-5 year Keyworker shortly before your child moves to introduce and welcome you to the 2-5 year group.

We never forget that learning is all about;   fun, play and happy children.  This is always central to our approach for Learning.  The Green Door Nursery offers a rich play environment for your child’s ever developing curious mind.
