Our Misson Statement
Our focus is to ensure that every child is offered equal opportunities to be able to grow and achieve within our setting as individuals.
We aim to offer a relaxed, welcoming and enriched environment where children are confident and believe in their capabilities and the worlds possibilities. Together, through positive partnerships between families, the community and our staff team, our children will be curious, explore and discover as they learn and develop.
Our Curriculum aims
At Puddleducks Day Nursery our curriculum is focused and centred around the individual child. We aim to embrace the interests of the children and be responsive to their curiosity and thinking.
Our combination of adult and child lead learning in both the indoor and outdoor environment allows children the freedom to make choices and be an advocate of their own learning. We hold high value towards the curiosity approach, this reflects within the philosophy of our setting and has been a key factor in the development of our curriculum. Children are given the opportunity to explore, appreciate and understand the natural world, take & manage risks and ultimately develop a love for learning through play.
Practitioners are facilitators to children’s learning, their role is to observe, support & extend learning, offer meaningful opportunities and experiences whilst listening to the child and tuning in to their needs and interests.
