INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP LEARNING
Our learning environments allow children to flourish as an individual and find their confidence in a group. Social and emotional development is a core part of our learning structure and the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum under-pins all our learning activities.
DEDICATED PRESCHOOL CLASSROOM
On Monday's we offer a separate pre-school only classroom, with the aim of preparing children for the transition to primary school in September. The main nursery setting is still available to other age groups on this day.
CREATIVE OUTDOOR LEARNING SPACE
At Stepping Stones we have a large outdoor garden area complete with raised beds, mud kitchen, outdoor toys and ample room for the children to burn off some energy!
