Sally Donaldson is Head of the Kindergarten and manages the day to day management of the children, staff and parents.
The Kindergarten provides a safe and secure introduction to school life. Through gradual settling-in sessions, the children in the Kindergarten quickly feel welcome and happy in a caring, nurturing environment. The curriculum takes them through three dedicated rooms: Babies, Toddlers and Ducklings, each room building on the child’s developmental stages. Through these progressive learning environments, the children are introduced to a wide range of new experiences and learning opportunities. Our philosophy is based on structured learning through play based on careful observation of each child’s individual interests and skills. Activities are designed to support the child’s development, academically and personally with frequent special events such as trips, visiting speakers and local walks help to bring the curriculum alive and to foster the children’s curiosity about the world around them.
