Claremont pre-school
 

The pre-school side of the nursery is 3 joining rooms, that work as one big room allowing us to offer the children a wide range of different activities whilst giving them the chance to make their own decisions and choices.

The Rainbow Room
Generally known as the messy room where children can enjoy painting, water play, sand play, play dough, gluk, printing, clay, junk modelling and many more messy activities.
Dream Room
The smallest of the 3 rooms where children can relax, read books, listen to story tapes through headphones, spend time at the drawing and writing table or play with interactive displays
The Garden Room
Offers a range of small world toys, puzzles, games, music area, house corner and dressing up area, computer with internet access, and many other activities to promote childrens early numeracy and understanding of the world. This room also leads directly to our large garden were we spend a lot of our time.
Planning
Most of the planning in pre-school comes from observations and the children’s own interests. The staff then share this with parents/carers on a daily basis to build links with home life/nursery, this enables us to plan for the individual child. We also have a long term plan to cover any festivals or cultural events through out the year, this is supported by the Child at the Centre and Curricular Framework 3-5.
