Tuning into each child’s needs
When it comes to monitoring your child and assessing their development at Young Friends Kindergarten, it’s a cyclical process.
Risk Benefit
At Young Friends we provide a safe environment and encouragement for your child to push boundaries and explore their environment.
Schemas
Young Friends Kindergarten is a ‘loose parts’ kindergarten with all the children’s activities based on an educational method called SchemaPlay™.
Characteristics of effective learning
At Young Friends Kindergarten we are highly interested in how your child learns as opposed to what they learn. This individual drive will stay with them for life.
High-quality interactions
Within their family group, our highly trained staff connect with children, interact with them, observe their interests, and link their learning to the exciting activities and experiences that we provide.
Key person system
When your child joins us at Young Friends Kindergarten, you’ll be introduced to your ‘key person’ who will be in your child’s pod and will be your main point of contact all the while your child is with us.
Family groupings
When your child starts at Young Friends Kindergarten, they’ll join one of our ‘family groups’. We have two pods, one for under-twos and one for over-twos.
Family partnerships
Young Friends Kindergarten is here to provide superb care and education for your child, and to do that we need to work alongside you.
