We strive to help all children to manage ‘change’ as they encounter new experiences and challenges. The children are exposed to many transitions out with the familiar nursery environment e.g. Nature Kindergarten, Eco walks, Library walks as well as transition visits to Primary School. These experiences are repeated and become entrenched in an effort to support the child to make sense of the world around them.
We want to make the transition to school as seamless and natural as possible for all children. Children are gradually introduced to ‘school life’ over the course of their pre-school year. Staff from both the nursery and the primary school work together to provide a supportive network for both parents and children.
We aim to give our children experience of play and learning activities in a primary classroom. During visits the children will participate in a range of activities alongside their primary 1 friends e.g. soft start, story telling and songs/rhymes, gym sessions.
Here are links to some of the primary schools that are chosen by our families.
