Pooh Bear's Preschool - 3 years to 5 years

Melrose is committed to providing children with every advantage educationally. 
We encourage language development, creativity, the development of mathematical concepts and a scientific enquiring mind. We plan our curriculum around themes, following the criteria set out in the Early Learning Goals for the foundation stage.

Language development is seen as crucial to the development of all the other areas and there is daily ‘news’, stories, songs and poetry.  Vocabulary is encouraged through informal conversation, group discussions and various educational displays around the nursery. Group activities encourage children to co-operate with one another, make friends, share and take turns.

Other activities include painting, drawing, tracing, cutting, sticking, sorting, matching, jigsaws, puzzles, number games, construction toys, dressing up, house play, baking, dough, clay and of course reading and writing.

We motivate each individual child to develop in the fullest possible way at his or her own level and speed.  We encourage a positive self image, independence and self confidence by the use of praise and reward.  The children develop their own personalities and are encouraged to be polite and have good manners.
