At Smiths Children Montessori we recognise the importance of having highly qualified, skilled and caring staff who build
strong relationships with families as being paramount to everyone’s happiness and
wellbeing.
We provide
opportunities for everyone to further their professional development through
training and workshops and constantly strive to improve our practice through
regular self-evaluation and sharing of new ideas and good practice.
At the core of our belief's we recognise the vital importance that Nutrition, Learning & Environment have upon the overall wellbeing and development of your children in these important early years. Our ethos of 'Nurturing Wonderful minds' encompasses all these core belief elements.
Learning
- Authentic Montessori approach to
learning. Our nursery was founded on the principles of Dr Maria Montessori.
- Statutory Framework for
the Early Years Foundation Stage
- We encourage children of
all ages in our care to understand the importance of caring for themselves and
each other and for the environment they belong. We encourage traditional values
of behaviour including kindness & respect to others, good manners,
responsibility for ones actions, tolerance & independence.
- To provide opportunity to
all children in our care.
Environment
- Pastoral Care – To provide a friendly and loving environment
in which all children feel safe and secure. Thus providing a strong platform from
which children can develop and learn with confidence.
- A Prepared Montessori Environment, independence within limits.
Children have freedom of independence to make their own decisions and learn at
their own pace guided by strong role models. Children are free to choose, try
and do for themselves, this leads to an enormously powerful confidence building
approach to learning.
- Parent Partnership – Building strong relationships
with families, so that information important to the wellbeing of children and a balanced
routine is maintained. Encourage daily, morning and afternoon communication with
parents, supported by children’s daily diaries and progress folders.
Nutrition
- Freshly prepared meals consisting of healthy natural
ingredients including free range and organic.
