West Chinnock Playschool

gh play for children aged between two and four years, closely monitoring their progress and gently guiding their development. The playschool is situated within the main school building of West Chinnock Primary School and benefits from the wonderful facilities and exceptional rural location. Playschool staff have close ties to both West Chinnock and Norton sub Hamdon primary schools. Working alongside Early Years staff, activities are co-ordinated with both schools curricula to ensure that the transition to school is a happy one. Activities are child centred, focusing on learning through play, for example; P.E. music, dance, rhyme, song, wellie walks, role play, cooking, painting, sand and water play, and construction. Resources include a wide selection of books and toys encouraging creativity and early maths and language skills. Each child is appointed a keyworker who will observe their progress and keep parents up-to-date with their development and any issues that may arise. Every child is encouraged to reach their full potential according to their age, ability and stage of development in all areas of early years education.
