Through our years of experience and drawing upon research, we know that children’s potential for learning is maximised when they are deeply and completely engaged in play. We work closely with parents to ensure that we regularly update them on what their children have been learning in nursery and their next stages of development. We implement the Early years Foundation Stage (EYFS). The EYFS is a play-based curriculum which is designed to ensure that children learn through play and to help guide practitioners observe, plan and asses children’s stages of development. We use children’s interests and stages of development to plan exciting, stimulating and purposeful activities and experiences for the individual child.
At Honey Pot, we have a strong focus on child-initiated play and this enables us to plan in the moment when teachable moments arise. We use an online learning application which all parents are required to download on their smart phone or devices. Through this application, parents receive regular photographs and videos of their child’s play, experiences, activities and social interactions with their peers. Information is sent to parents through this app about their learning, stages of development and next steps. We also use the app to remind parents about upcoming events in the nursery and send through important information such as the nursery newsletter etc.
