All children, including the youngest, are happy and settled. Children behave well. Staff use conversations with them at the beginning of each day to talk about shared values. Children understand the importance of being kind, sharing and to listen when their friends are talking. Staff are good role models, they treat children with kindness and respect. In turn, children listen to staff and are polite and courteous and behave well towards each other.

As they create dinosaur pizzas, children use different ingredients, measuring out and adding to shared bowls.

For instance, themes for each holiday club are inspired by children's unique interests and choices, tailored to their differing ages and abilities.
