The Nutkin room offers care to children aged between two and three years and operates from two adjourning rooms. A combination of both planned and free play is available to the children offering a wealth of learning opportunities with a little more structure. Children’s own interest and initiatives influence the planning of activities to ensure they are fully engaged and interested in what is on offer. Independence is fully supported, for example children are encouraged to help prepare the table for lunch if they are the daily ‘lunch monitor’. They are encouraged to pour their own drinks and serve their own food under the careful guidance of the practitioners. Children are beginning to learn about the importance of rules and boundaries and how to take safe risk. The children in Nutkins have their own bathroom that is fully equipped for changing nappies and support potty training as well as child size toilets to help them take care of their own personal needs.
