Learning

Our curriculum and teaching practices are guided by the latest developments in early childhood research, the experience of our early education specialists and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Working with leading early years and Montessori experts we have blended our own ambitious outcomes for the children in with the Characteristics of effective learning and learning outlined by the EYFS – supporting children to play and explore, be active learners and critical thinkers. 

Our curriculum is co-constructed by the children and educators, who work together in teams to extend each child’s unique interests, find the answers to their questions about the world and inspire their learning through the introduction of new contexts and provocations. We deliver the curriculum through play based experiences and inspirational teaching. On a daily basis there is a balance of educator-initiated learning experiences and child initiated play.

Extra curricular activities.

We offer a wide range of extra curricular activities, all of which are inclusive within our fee structures. These are:

  • Spanish classes
  • Mindfulness classes
  • Music and movement classes
  • Cooking classes
  • Sports classes 
I am amazed how much this nursery and the staff have had such a positive impact on my little girl. Every morning we receive a warm welcome when we come into the main reception.
The food looks great with such a varied menu, it makes me jealous! The fact that it's all organic is an added bonus, knowing I am giving my son the best.
Since our toddlers joined the nursery, we have noticed so many enjoyable differences in them, notably independence, confidence and speech and we also notice them pointing out things that we know they definitely learnt at nursery.
I love that I get a detailed update on what my child has been up to in the day through an app and that the updates include pictures which I am able to then share with the rest of my family.
My son has only been at the nursery a few weeks and already I have noticed how quickly he has developed new skills. Everything from holding his own open cup to putting together puzzles.
My daughter has become more and more confident in her home life after attending nursery.
My son has progressed so well since being there and they provide such a wide range of activities for the kids. I would always recommend this nursery to anyone and will send any future children there.
My daughter has a great relationship with the staff members and will happily jump into their arms. I'm so glad I made the right choice at Blossom Tree Montessori.
