Effective Learning
Children learn most effectively when they are happy and having fun.
Here at Seren Fach all learning takes place through
fun based activities. Each child is valued as an individual with different
needs, abilities and potential, in an environment where they feel comfortable,
secure and confident.
Clearly different ages work towards different goals and these age groups
are loosely grouped as under three’s (birth to three matters) and over three‘s
(the foundation stage.)
Under Three’s
Seren Fach operates within the birth to three matters framework which
recognises that all children have from birth, a need to develop, learning
through interaction with people and exploration of the world around them.
The framework identifies that babies are social beings, they are competent
learners from birth and learn more by doing rather than being told.
Over Three’s
From the toddler stage onwards we work within the foundation stage guidelines.
The children learn through both planned and child-led activities that
cover the six desirable outcomes for children's learning.
These are:-
- Creative development
- Mathematical development
- Physical development
- Knowledge and understanding of the world
- Communication, language and literacy
- Personal, social and emotional development
At this age children are constantly encountering new experiences, they
deepen their understanding by playing, talking, observing and experimenting.
At Seren Fach learning experiences are planned considering
both children’s needs and achievements.
Our well planned play helps the children learn with enjoyment and challenge
during the foundation stage.
