Children stay healthy because staff follow current and appropriate environmental health and hygiene guidelines, policies and procedures. 

Children are well nourished and enjoy healthy snacks during the session. They have fresh fruit, vegetables and biscuits as part of their rolling snack time. This helps them to gain an understanding of the importance of healthy eating. Staff have a clear understanding of allergies, intolerances and religious restrictions. This ensures children's health and dietary needs are met. 

Children enjoy participating in a range of indoor physical activities, such as playing parachute and using the wheeled toys competently. They enthusiastically join in sticking, painting and drawing. Children enjoy exploring malleable materials, such as dough. They enjoy experimenting with the different ways that they can roll it, squeeze it and model it into different shapes, helping them to enhance their fine physical skills.

Children are happy and confident in the setting. They know the routine well and seek out friends to join them in their play. Children are cared for in a safe and secure environment.

Children are generally happy at the pre-school and participate confidently during the session.

Staff provide lots of praise and encouragement which helps to build children's confidence.

Children are valued as individuals and have equal access to toys and equipment which meet their individual needs, so they can become confident and independent. Effective procedures are in place to support children with learning difficulties and/or disabilities and the group works in partnership with parents and other professionals to ensure children's specific needs are met. 

Staff treat children with respect and are good role models. They remain calm when talking to children about what is acceptable behaviour within the setting.

The staff are all motivated and committed to improving the quality of care and the provision of education and their work is supported by the committee.
