From the Christ Church Clifton Pre-School
Clifton's Christ Church Preschool exists to provide children of different ethnicities, needs, and faiths with inexpensive, high-quality care. Our goal is to give neighbourhood kids a fun, stimulating atmosphere where they may play, learn, and experiment. Our OFSTED report is available here. We offer a comprehensive and engaging curriculum that complies with the Early Years Foundation Stage standards (EYFS). 7 areas—3 primary and 4 specific—make up the children's learning: Personal, social, and emotional development; Language and communication; Physical development Understanding the world; mathematics; literacy; expressive arts and design We hope that the pre-school will be a great entry point into schooling. Warmth, encouragement, and care are everywhere around the kids, and we collaborate closely with parents and other caregivers to enhance learning. For additional details, please refer to our prospectus and SEND offer. Children will be exposed to a variety of various languages and cultures during their time with us because the pre-school team speaks eight languages among ourselves. Additionally, they will get the chance to pick up some Spanish through routine singing and gaming sessions. The pre-school gains from having its own private garden. The kids can go on bug hunts, play in the sandpit, climb, and ride bikes here, as well as dig and plant in our flowerbeds. We additionally take our packed lunches outside during the warmer months.
