Learning & Development

At Wonderland there are many opportunities for your child to develop and explore new skills as well as laughter and fun. We feel that every child is unique and to help each child to reach their potential, every activity is designed for specific areas of your child’s development.

The nursery is well equipped with a range of play equipment toys, art and craft materials, puzzles, books, sensory equipment, a projector, fibre optic lighting and two touch screen computers.

All activities are planned with children's individual needs, interests and stage in mind in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) which creates a coherent and flexible approach to care and learning for all children under five years of age.

The EYFS is used in our daily planning and evaluation of learning activities and the care that we provide. We also use the areas of learning and development to observe and assess each individual child. The areas of learning and development are as follows:

• Personal, Social, Emotional Development

• Communication and Language Development

• Literacy

• Mathematical Development

• Understanding the World

• Physical Development

• Expressive Arts and Design
