Activities

We offer a broad range of both child and adult-led activities that are fun and engaging. At the same time the team create learning opportunities that help to develop self-confidence, independence and imagination.

We have a range of resources which support this, including:

  • large and small loose parts, inside and out

  • construction sets, both man-made and natural materials

  • dress up and role play opportunities

  • many opportunities for the children to acquire life skills

We also offer a range of sensory activities, mark making and open-ended creative activities, such as exploring the texture of shaving foam and how colours mix in water, not to mention all the den making, story telling and physical games we get involved in!

Early phonics for all of the children is incorporated into every day. This consists of singing, speaking and listening activities, rhyming stories, and sound differentiation games.

Age appropriate activities are delivered by skilled practitioners through the DfE Letters and Sounds program.

In addition, we support children in a range of enjoyable and playful ways to ensure they are prepared both emotionally and physically for primary school and other transitions.

Accessibility

Activities at Duxford Preschool are accessible to all and we have two qualified Special Educational Needs Coordinators (SENCo) on site who support staff, children and families with issues around special educational needs, disability, additional needs and behavioural issues.
