What we do - Our Curriculum
Children
start to learn about the world around them from the moment they are
born. The care and education offered
by Holly Hill Pre-School
helps children continue to do this by providing interesting activities that
are appropriate for their age and stage of development.
Our
Curriculum follows the Early Learning Goals as set out by the DfES for the
Foundation Stage of children’s learning.
The six key learning areas we focus on are:
- Personal, social and emotional
development: in
which goals relate to developing confidence and independence, learning
to concentrate and enjoy sharing.
- Communication, language and
literacy: developing
skills such as talking, listening, writing and “Getting Ready to Read”.
- Maths: understanding and using numbers,
quantity, measurement, shape and space.
- Knowledge and Understanding of the
World: covers
investigating and beginning to understand the things, places and people
around them.
- Physical development: improving control and co-ordination
of their bodies, developing motor skills.
- Creative development: finding ways to communicate using
role play, colour, shape, sound, texture, movement and stories.

We
operate what is called a ‘Key Worker’ system which provides all Parents with
a special link between child, Parent and Pre-School. We keep a Record of Achievement for each
child, which means we can identify your child’s stage of development and
progress and plan the next steps. We
work closely with Parents to ensure all children are advancing.
