Our Events
Here at Davison Day Nursery we believe in inspiring the children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning in a happy, active, and secure environment. We are guided by the EYFS framework where we support all children’s development, care and learning needs. Here are a few of the activities that reflect the broad range of opportunities that benefit the children’s progress ahead of them.
Outdoor Area
The children are offered a free-flow environment, which enables them to choose to play independently in our large outdoor space. Here they can use the large range of equipment, access areas such as the mud kitchen, roll down our hill, play on the slide or tyres, mark-make on the whiteboards and painting wall, or develop their understanding of the world by using our purpose built area for growing plants and vegetables.
Creativity
We encourage the children to find ways to represent and develop their own ideas in all areas of creativity. They are able to access our ever expanding craft resources to create their individual designs and share their thoughts in a variety of activities in art, music and movement, dance, role-play and technology.
Understanding the World
We offer opportunities for the children to make sense of the world around them, by exploration and investigation in a safe, challenging environment.
Fun and Fitness
Alongside our daily routines, we are extremely fortunate to have access to the sports facilities at Davison High School where the children are able to participate in a variety of fun activities. Here children can develop their large motor skills, such as coordination, control and movement. We also have a visiting teacher who provides the children with a programme of opportunities to be both active and interactive (such as Dough Disco).
Mathemathics / Literacy
We are aware of how important it is for children to have an understanding for problem solving, using numbers and distinguishing between sounds and letters of the alphabet. We therefore offer numerous fun activities (both indoors and outdoors) to encourage the development of these foundational skills through play.
