Nursery - Mrs J Hamilton (jhamilton965@c2kni.net)
Play is the vehicle on which we learn.
It takes us on an ongoing journey, allowing us to stop off, revisit and move on towards new goals.
Through play we develop physically, socially and academically.
Play enables us to explore, problem solve, predict and test theories.
Play provides us with natural opportunities to explore our world around us, discover our talents, to develop our gross and fine motor skills and to develop our early literacy and numeracy skills.
Through play we learn to negotiate and to work in groups, developing our communication and leadership skills.
We grow in confidence, independence and self esteem, all while developing a thirst for learning!
