Rising Fours
|
We are extremely proud of our transition to school programme called Rising Fours.
These sessions are on a Tuesday afternoon for those children starting Primary School in the following September. These sessions are planned in conjunction with the Early Years team at The Dingle Primary School and usually include visits by the children to The Dingle School, and visits from The Dingle staff to The Croft Preschool. We do have links with other schools in the area. In the Rising Fours we cover: Phonics Early Number Work Programmes Indoor & Outdoor PE Sessions (the children must have a PE kit with them so they can practice getting ready for PE, enabling independence ready for Primary School) The purpose of these sessions is to extend the learning experiences of the children prior to school. The rising Four session is available to children who are already attending a minimum of one session at the Croft Preschool. The staff to child ratio is much higher at the rising four session due to the nature of activities we plan. |
We also go on trips out for example our Nature Walks, which always proves popular!
