This provision meets requirements

Staff provide a nurturing environment that ensures children always feel safe and relaxed at the club. They greet children warmly and take a genuine interest as they ask them about their school day. Staff work closely with parents right from the outset and spend time getting to know children well. They actively seek children's views and ideas and plan a wide range of enjoyable activities that children enjoy. Staff are tuned into children's needs and offer support and comfort when necessary. For example, they recognise when they are tired and read stories with them in the quiet cosy area. Children have access to the school playing fields and enjoy fresh air and exercise each day. They build on their upper body strength as they take part in parachute games and carefully negotiate and balance objects, such as balls. Staff challenge children further and encourage them to practise new skills using resources in different ways.

n Staff recognise and respond well to children's individual needs. They use a variety of strategies to help children regulate and express their emotions positively, such as through discussion, visual aids and creative art. For instance, as children draw self-portraits, staff encourage them to discuss their families, their interests, and similarities and differences with their friends. Staff actively display children's achievements on walls at the setting, which gives children a sense of ownership of the club. n Staff support children's curiosity and encourage them to follow their own ideas. For example, children show developing problem-solving skills as they work out how to stop a tent blowing away in the wind. They test out their ideas and remain engaged in their play, which helps to build on their critical-thinking skills. n Children demonstrate kindness and respect towards their friends and staff. They
