The Nursery facilities at Charlton House Nursery are particularly impressive, with rooms designed for younger children. Children may start at nursery from the age of three years and remain until they reach school age. At this point, many of the children progress into the Primary department - Charlton House. The Nursery department provides a safe, caring, happy and stimulating environment in which the children can learn. The early years are vitally important and formative, and it is by exploring, questioning and doing, that children build up their knowledge of the world around them. We have extensive resources and equipment to vary and maintain the children's interest so that they develop in all areas of the curriculum. Activities are carefully chosen to help the children develop socially, emotionally, intellectually and physically. We allow children to develop their potential at their own pace by providing developmentally appropriate activities following the 'Curriculum guidance for the Foundation stage'. We use a combined approach of moderately structured teaching with free play and self discovery. Activities are supplemented with outings and visitors as appropriate.
