Our EYFS environment
The Nursery and EYFS environment at St Teresa’s has been specifically designed to reflect a curious, dynamic and engaging learning environment both indoors and outside. Securing the best possible start to a child’s education is very important to us.
INDOOR ENVIRONMENT
Our Nursery Class has a carefully designed learning space to provide inspirational learning opportunities. It includes a wet area for messy play and creative activities as well as designated learning zones for literacy, mathematics, small world and role play. There is also an inviting reading area and well resourced domestic home corner. The classroom space has been developed to encompass all areas of the EYFS curriculum, ensuring continuous and enhanced provision throughout the day.
We believe that our ‘home from home’ environment affords the children to live out real life experiences.
OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT
Our outdoor environment is a secure and safe space for exploration and play. It enables children to explore across the different areas of learning, providing opportunities for their social, emotional and physical development.
It includes water and sand play as well as trails and balance planks. The mud kitchen allows for imaginative play and there are also areas for planting and digging.
We pride ourselves on a natural environment both inside and outside of our classroom.
