Achievement is key
18-24 Months
This is where the toddlers continue to explore, learn and seek new opportunities to play. This room offers an extensive range of low-level activities and resources such as construction, creative, role play, sand and water play and the book corner. Children are able to access these areas independently according to their individual preferences. Our passionate and experienced staff form close relationships with both children and parents enabling them to provide the best possible care and opportunities for the children to learn and develop at their own pace. The toddlers eat together in our dining room and are assisted with washing their own hands before eating and helping to serve their own food. This promotes good hygiene practice and independence as well as learning new skills. In addition, toddlers have access to the sensory room, wet room and library.
