| In addition to all of the indoor activities, the children go outside every day throughout the year for fresh air and exercise gained through a variety of activities (weather permitting). We consider outdoor play to be an essential part of children's learning and development. The fully secured outside play area has a special rubber safety surface to protect the children and can be accessed from the main reception area. The play areas central feature is a red bus on which the children's imagination can take them absolutely anywhere. There is also a sheltered seating area in which the children can enjoy picnics, language rings, a story and much more.
The children go outside in their own room groups, but sometimes they may join with the next age group of children and their room staff. This gives the children the opportunity for integration with other age groups and familiarity with other members of staff.
