We are a term time only setting and follow Leicestershire County Council holidays. The setting is on ground floor level and we have access to a secure outdoor area. Inside we operate a free flow policy with areas of continuous provision which include; home corner, construction, small world, play dough, loose parts, water play and comfortable book corner. Outside includes a large sand pit, mud kitchen, ride on equipment, music stage and loose parts. We have an `In the Moment` approach through a loose parts ethos. Most of our resources are natural and open ended with many real objects such as phones and scales. We offer fruit and vegetables and milk/ water at a rolling snack time.
