Our Ethos
We believe that when you get the basics right, everything else will follow. That’s why education is at the heart of everything we do. Our daily activities are structured to give your child the basic learning tools so they can get the best possible start in life. Our curriculum is centred on our teaching practice which establishes the educational fundamentals through creative and innovative play. We are always researching and developing our curriculum to be the best at stimulating play and development for children and making learning more fun!
