Our philosophy is that children learn and development when they are healthy, secure, safe and stimulated. Positive relationships with the adults caring for them is paramount and this therefore is reflected in the quality of staff in which we employ.

Our setting will be inclusive and totally child centred, where children will be fully involved in their learning.

This therefore scaffolds their learning to enable them to reach their full potential.
