Welcome to Shooting Stars
This is the room for 3-5 year olds, it is a fun, exciting room for the children to play and explore. We encourage the children to learn through play whilst following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). We teach the children to enjoy their learning and hopefully give the children a good start for for school life. We aim to provide the same standard of teaching as nursery schools and due to our lower ratios we can provide a nurturing and caring environment for the children to ensure learning from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), these are Communication and Language, Physical and Personal, Social and Emotional Development. Preschool children also follow the four specific areas of learning, these are Literacy, Maths, Expressive Arts and Design, and Understanding of the World. Most importantly children have fun whilst at the nursery.

Our Ethos and Philosophy
Here at Sadwica Day Nursery we support the child's unique developmental journey by providing them with a high standard curriculum and a committed team of early years practitioners. Our four leading principles are:
Unique child: "Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured"
Positive relationships: "Babies and young children learn to be strong and independent through loving and secure relationships with parents and carers"
Enabling environments: We feel our environment encourages babies and young children to play and explore because they feel relaxed, comfortable and ‘at home’ in them"
Learning development: " children are developing all the time and their learning reflects this. the EYFS uses learning and development to describe the 7 areas of learning
