The children are grouped into small easily managed "home
bases".
 |
3 months - 12 months |
 |
1 year - 2 years |
 |
2 years - 3 years |
 |
3 years - 4 years |
 |
4 years - 5 years |
However, these groupings are not set in stone and a child
only moves to another group when he or she is ready to do
so.
CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES
The nursery has been designed to cater for all children,
including those with disabilities. Some of our staff
have training and experience of working with children with
disabilities.
PRE-SCHOOL
Tiny Toes provides first class pre-school education for
children aged between two and a half and five years. This
is headed by a trained teacher accompanied by nursery assistants.
The early years are critical and children should have every
chance to strengthen positive attitudes towards learning
during those years.
We aim to provide the child with objects, materials and
activities which are especially suited to his or her needs
at each stage of development.
We aim to develop each child's:-
 |
Concentration |
 |
Co-ordination |
 |
Persistence in completing
a task |
 |
Self-discipline |
 |
Orderliness |
 |
Desire to learn |
 |
Initiative |
 |
Creative self expression |
 |
Independence |
