Children have free access to an enormous range of high-quality, stimulating and exciting resources. Babies and younger children have a wide range of sensory activities to explore, both inside and outside. Staff make excellent use of children's interests and topics, further stimulating their excitement, imagination, and physical and language development. For example, children enthusiastically build their own aeroplane using various outdoor resources. Children solve problems during a cereal and cement house-building activity.

All children, including those who receive additional funding, make very good progress. Children are developing excellent skills to help them with their future learning and development. For example, they understand the importance of personal hygiene in relation to mealtimes and after using the bathroom. Children are encouraged to dress and undress themselves, skilfully negotiate equipment and understand their actions may have an impact on others. They excitedly show and talk about their work and creations.
