Daily Routine

08:00 – 09:00 Arrivals
Children arrive between 8am & 9am. We have signing-in sheets for all to sign.

09:00 – 12:00 English session / French session
We alternate the language sessions during the week.

12:00 – 12:50/13:00 Lunch
A calm, happy, talkative and social experience.  Aiming to develop:  social skills, turn taking, politeness, helping and serving each other; being responsible for the nursery by scraping plates and helping to clear away, as well as developing personal hygiene skills. We provide variety and choice of organic food – and develop healthy eating habits such as plenty of fruit and vegetables, with no added salt or sugar. We aim to be super healthy and also educate children’s palates to enjoy natural, healthy flavours & food.

12:50/13:00 – 13:30 Rest or outdoor play
Some children require an afternoon nap. Mattresses are provided for them. The other children play outside

13:30 – 16:00 French session / English session
As above: if children have English in the morning, they will have French in the afternoon – and vice-versa.

16:10 – 16:30 Tea-Time
Again, a social and enjoyable experience. Children begin going home at 16:00

16:30 – 17:00 Outdoor play experiences
During summer months this may extend to the end of the day. During extremely bad weather days, practitioners’ discretion will guide how long the children stay outside.

17:00-17:45 Game Time
If the children are not outdoors, this time will be used by teachers to promote group games .

17:45 – 18:00 Wind down / good bye song
Children may want to listen to a story, sing a song or prepare their coats & bags.
