",en,Hezkuntza Saila,en Early Years Foundation Stage (‘EYFS’) framework. This educational framework is specified by the UK Government and its implementation is overseen and appraised by Ofsted. It’s down to individual nurseries like Roxeth to implement the framework and we strive to do so in the optimum way. This is all achieved in a stress-free, relaxed way, almost entirely through active play in our Toddler and Pre-school Rooms and in a more structured way in the Haurtzaindegia Rooms, ensuring children are ready for transfer to school and the Reception year. This approach makes learning natural — and immense fun!
“Children learn by leading their own play, and by taking part in play which is guided by adults.” (Department for Education).

As such, it’s a perfect fit for children at Roxeth Nursery.
The 3 Prime Areas of the Curriculum
There are 7 key areas within the early years curriculum. These include 3 ‘prime’ areas which, in turn, interconnect and enhance the remaining four — each helping to improve the other.
- Communication & Language is the first of the three prime areas of our EYFS-based curriculum. Without good communication and language skills, all other areas of learning could suffer, so these are critically important skills for children to master in their early years. Haurtzaindegiko langileek, beraz, langileen eta haurren arteko komunikazio aberatsak bultzatzen dituzte - eta pareko peer batetik - lehen egunetik haurtzaindegian sartzen dira,en,Hizkuntza eta komunikazio trebetasunak haurrei modu naturalean hazten dira,en,Role-Play bezalako jarduerak dibertigarriak,en,Ipuinak kontatzeko eta galdetzeko eta erantzuteko jokoak,en,Kalitate handiko liburuak eta beste aberatsak,en,irakurtze,en,Materialak langileekin ere erabiltzen dituzte haurrekin irakurtzeko,en,elkarreragile,en,Ikuspegi mota hauek erabiltzeak haurrei hiztegi eta gramatika berriak ikasten laguntzen die,en,Irakurketa eta ulermena hobetzeko eta hizkuntza eta komunikazio trebetasunak zabaltzeko ia ahalegintzen dira hazten diren heinean,en,Garapen fisikoa,en,Haurtzaindegiko oinarritutako curriculumaren gune nagusien bigarrenak da,en,Adina formatibo honetan,en,uneoro,en. Language and communication skills grow naturally to children through engaging, fun activities like role-play, story-telling and question-and-answer games. High quality books and other rich reading materials are also employed by staff to read with children in an interactive Using these kind of approaches helps children to learn new vocabulary and grammar, to improve reading and comprehension and to almost effortlessly broaden their language and communication skills as they grow.
- Physical Development is the second of the prime areas of the nursery’s EYFS-based curriculum. At this formative age, haur txikiak hazten eta azkar garatzen ari dira,en,Beraz, garapen fisikorako erritmoa esanguratsua da,en,Horregatik, Roxeth-eko haurtzaindegiko langileek osasun ezin hobea bermatzeko ahal duten guztia egingo dute,en,inguratu,en,sendotasun,en,haurren artean koordinazioa eta fitness fase guztietan,en,Hori guztia egiten da haurra banakako garapen fisikoko programa baten bidez,en,Neurrira egindako programa honek beren gaitasun naturalak kontuan hartzen ditu,en,lehentasunak eta,en,Noski,en,Edozein desgaitasuna edo mugak,en,Hazten diren heinean,en,Dibertitzeko programa,en,Jarduera fisikoek haur guztiei lagunduko diete fitness bezalako ezaugarriengatik,en,hondar,en,koordinazio,en,Eskuz egindako koordinazioa,en,arintasuna eta espazialaren kontzientzia,en,Hobekuntza fisiko horiek beren ongizate eta zoriontasun orokorrarekin lagunduko dute,en,Eta,en, so their physical development pace is significant. That’s why nursery staff at Roxeth will do everything they can to ensure optimal health, wellbeing, strength, coordination and fitness among the children at every stage. This is all done incrementally through a physical development programme that’s custom-designed for each individual child. This tailored programme takes consideration of their natural abilities, preferences and, of course, any disabilities or limitations. As they grow, the programme of fun, physical activities will help every child to reach their own personal bests for traits like fitness, balance, coordination, hand-eye coordination, agility and spatial awareness. In turn these physical improvements will help with their general wellbeing and happiness.

- Personal, Social & Emotional Development(‘PSED’) is the third of the three prime areas of our curriculum. The personal part of it aims to ensure that children can look after aspects of their lives themselves, independently managing personal needs like cleanliness, toilet training, healthy eating and so on. The social and emotional aspects of it aim to help children fit in with adults and peers around them, support one another, themselves feel supported by others and together learn to manage emotions and behave in acceptable, appropriate ways. As they learn to do all of this, they will become more confident, feel rightly valued, Errazago konpontzen dira gatazkak eta adiskidetasun hurbilagoak osatzen dituzte ikaskideekin eta lotura sendoagoak sortu langileekin,en,Horrek guztiak oinarri sozial eta emozional gisa jokatuko du beste guztia eraikitzeko,en,Curriculumaren "eremu zehatz" osagarriak,en,Korrika paraleloan,en,gune nagusiak,en,badaude,en,Roxeth bezalako haurtzaindegien ardatz osagarriak,en,EYFS esparru bikainak betetzen dituzten lehen urteetako curriculuma,en,fokuaren gainerako lau arloetako lehena da,en,Curriculuma zoritxarrez ez litzateke falta haurrek ikasketaren amaieran amaitzen ez badute,en,Alfabetatzea guztiz funtsezkoa da eta haur gazte bakoitzari hasiera onenak emango dizkio hasierako urteetako ezarpenak uzten dituztenean eskola hasteko,en,Horren aurrean,en,Irakurtzea eta idaztea da,en,Alabaina,en. All of this will act as a social and emotional foundation to build everything else upon.
The 4 Additional ‘Specific Areas’ of the Curriculum
Running in parallel with the 3 prime areas, there are 4 additional areas of focus for nurseries like Roxeth, which adhere to the excellent EYFS framework for their early years curriculum.
- Literacy is the first of the remaining four areas of focus. A curriculum would be sadly lacking if children didn’t end up literate at the end of study. Literacy is absolutely fundamental and will give each young child the very best start when they leave early years settings to start school. On the face of it, it’s all about reading and writing. However, Eskubide horiek lortzeak asko lagunduko du,en,beste,en,ikasteko guneak,en,Roxeth-en,en,haurtzaindegiak animatzen ditugu,en,gozatu,en,irakurtzetik,en,Azken finean,en,Irakurri ondoren, munduari buruz askoz gehiago ulertuko dute fikziozko materialik ez dutenak eta askoz gehiago irudimenaren eta sormenaren fikzio liburuetatik,en,Hain,en,zabalerako sarbidea dute,en,Irakurketa material aberatsak,en,Gramatika,en,ortografia,en,puntu-kopuru,en,Fonetika eta gai askotariko izugarrizko ulermen orokorra irakurketa aktibo eta erregularrarekin batera joango dira eskuetara,en,Antzeko moduan,en,Idazmena ere onura izango da,en,Haurrek ortografia zuzena ezagutzen ikasten duten heinean,en,Konposizioa eta esaldien egitura eta abar,en,Gure liburuen barietate aberatsen esposizioak irudimenak elikatuko ditu eta beraiek sormen handiagoak izaten lagunduko dute,en other areas of learning. At Roxeth, we encourage nursery children to take enjoyment from reading. After all, once they can read they will understand so much more about the world from non-fiction material and so much more about the possibilities of the imagination and creativity from fiction books. So, they have access to a wide, rich variety of reading materials. Grammar, spelling, punctuation, phonetics and overall comprehension of a huge variety of topics will all go hand-in-hand with active and regular reading. In a similar way, writing will benefit too, as the children learn to recognise the correct spelling, composition and sentence structure and so on. Exposure to our rich variety of books will feed their imaginations and help them to be more creative themselves. Gure seme-alabak ere animatzen ditugu,en, for example by reading out loud to themselves and others in an interactive way. By so doing, speech, pronunciation and articulation also benefit, as does their confidence to speak up.
- Mathematics is our fifth area of study within the core EYFS curriculum at Roxeth. It’s another fundamental skill that children need to learn but, as with everything at Roxeth, we make it fun. Through play and interactive sessions, children will learn the concepts behind mathematics, soon learning to distinguish things like odd and even numbers, number patterns and sequences, concepts like larger or smaller, wider or taller and more or less. Counting will first be mastered from one to ten, then in reverse, then extended to 20 or more. Concepts like volume, shape, measuring and space will also be included. So, Gure lehen urteetako ezarpenak uzten dituztenean,en,Eskola hasten direnean lurrean sartzeko behar duten matematikako trebetasunak eta kontzeptuak ikasiko dituzte,en,Mundua ulertzea,en,ROXETH Haurtzaindegian curriculumaren barruan gure ardatz nagusia da,en,Oso ikasketa arlo zabala da, haurtzaindegiko haur txikientzat eta hutsean jarriko dituena,en,Inguruan hainbeste dago eta ulertu behar dute eta testuingurua ikusten duten guztia eman behar dute,en,Hori kontuan hartuta,en,Aitortzen lagunduko diegu,en,ulertu,en,Deskribatu eta batzuetan berehala marraztu zer gertatzen zaien inguruan,en,Inguruan ikusten eta erabiltzen duten teknologiaz ere ikasiko dute,en, they’ll have learnt the requisite maths skills and concepts that they’ll need in order to hit the ground running when they start school.
- Understanding the World is our sixth key area of focus within the curriculum at Roxeth Nursery. It’s a very broad but important area of study for the young children at the nursery and one that’ll stand them in good stead going forwards. After all, there is so much around them and they need to understand it and to give everything they see context. With that in mind, we’ll help them to recognise, understand, describe and even sometimes draw what’s immediately around them. They will also learn about the technology they see and use around them. Gure lorategi ederrak haurrei aukera zabala ematen die mundu naturala eta flora eta fauna inguruan ikasteko,en,Beste erkidegoei buruz ere ikasiko dute,en,bai Erresuma Batuan bai atzerrian,en,kultura bezalako alderdiak barne,en,Sinesmenak eta erlijioak,en,Berriz ere,en,Lurzoru bikaina izatea,en,Gaztetan hain gaztetan,en,Munduaren ulermenean hutsean jarriko dira aurrera,en,Arte adierazkorrak,en,Diseinatu,en,Gure EYFS LED curriculumaren barruan fokuen azken gunea da,en,Haurrak dibertigarririk dibertigarriena iruditzen zaien arloetako bat ere bada,en,irudimentsua eta sortzailea izan,en,eta noizean behin nahasgarria izan dadin,en,Hedabide ugari,en,Ekipamenduak eta tresnak haurtzaindegietan eskuragarri daude eta jarduerak haurrak parte hartzera animatzen dituzte,en,sortu,en. They will also learn about other communities, both in the UK and abroad, including aspects like culture, beliefs and religions. Once again, having an excellent grounding, at such an early age, in the comprehension of the world will stand them in great stead going forwards.
- Expressive Arts & Design is the final area of focus within our EYFS led curriculum. It’s also one of the areas that children find most fun as it gives them the freedom to express themselves, be imaginative and creative, and even to get messy from time to time. A wide variety of media, equipment and tools are available to them at the nursery and activities encourage the children to get involved and to create. Ez da bakarrik artea,en,alabaina,en,Haurrek rol-play jardueretan parte har dezakete,en,abestu dezakete,en,dantzatu,en,istorioak kontatu eta antzeztu,en,Haien irudimenek matxinada egin dezakete eta aske izan daitezke beren burua eta sormena modu ugaritan adierazteko,en,Lehen urteetako Fundazioaren Curriculuma jarraitzen dugu gure haurtzaindegian,en,Edo hemen,en,A-Gida-to-Your-Childs-Learning-eta-garapena,en,Roxeth-eko EYFS LED curriculuma zati handi batean bost urte betetzen dituztenean "eskola prest" izaten laguntzea da,en,Haurrak ere ematen ditu,en,Bizitzan hasierarik onena,en,eskuarki,en,Laguntza oro ematen zaie beren onena pertsonalak betetzeko,en,ikasketa arlo guztietan beren potentzial optimoa lortuz,en,Helburu pertsonalizatuaren bidez,en,Modu horretan ondo ateratzea hasieran,en,urte formatibo gehienak,en, though; the children can involve themselves in role-play activities, they can sing, dance, tell stories and perform. Their imaginations can run riot and be free as they can express themselves and their creativity in a rich variety of ways.
Curriculum Implementation – Staff plan and develop activities that build on prior learning. Progress from week to week, term to term and year to year should be clear and children should be able to talk about their learning in an age appropriate way. We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum in our Nursery, Pre-School and Reception classes.
