Staff effectively help younger children to develop their awareness of texture as they explore and experiment with sand and water. In the pre-school room, staff provide various exciting opportunities to help extend children's interest. For example, they develop themes around stories that children enjoy and show interest in expanding.

For example, staff help children to learn how everyday equipment is used safely. The staff provide healthy and nutritious snacks and meals, and help children learn about healthy eating. Children take part in daily play outdoors where they enjoy getting lots of exercise, as part of developing good health and emotional well-being. Children are happy and enjoy their time at nursery.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are working within the expected levels of development for their age and in relation to their starting points. They are self-motivated and eager to learn. Children are happy, settled and confident. Older children independently care for their personal needs, while younger children freely select their choice of play. Children learn to use different forms of technology, for example, what happens when they change the lens in glasses. Children are respectful of each other. They gain good skills in readiness for the next stage in their learning and their eventual move to school.
