",en,Depatman pou Edikasyon,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 Pepinyè 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).

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. Anplwaye nan pepinyè a Se poutèt sa ankouraje kominikasyon rich ant anplwaye yo ak timoun yo - ak soti nan kanmarad kanmarad - soti nan premye jou a yo rantre nan pepinyè a,en,Ladrès langaj ak kominikasyon grandi natirèlman pou timoun yo nan angaje,en,Aktivite amizan tankou jwe wòl,en,istwa-rakonte ak kesyon-ak-repons jwèt,en,Liv kalite siperyè ak lòt moun rich,en,lekti,en,Materyèl yo travay tou pa anplwaye yo li ak timoun nan yon,en,entèaktif,en,Sèvi ak sa yo kalite apwòch ede timoun yo aprann nouvo vokabilè ak gramè,en,Pou amelyore lekti ak konpreyansyon ak prèske efor elaji lang yo ak ladrès kominikasyon jan yo grandi,en,Devlopman fizik,en,se dezyèm nan zòn yo pwemye nan kourikoulòm EYFS ki baze sou pepinyè a,en,Nan laj fòmatè sa a,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, jèn timoun yo ap grandi epi devlope rapidman,en,Se konsa, apante devlopman fizik yo enpòtan,en,Se poutèt sa anplwaye pepinyè nan Roxeth pral fè tout sa yo kapab asire pi bon sante,en,byennèt,en,fòs,en,Kowòdinasyon ak kapasite nan mitan timoun yo nan chak etap,en,Sa a se tout fè incrémentielle nan yon pwogram devlopman fizik ki nan koutim ki fèt pou chak timoun endividyèl,en,Pwogram sa a pwepare pran konsiderasyon nan kapasite natirèl yo,en,preferans ak,en,nan kou,en,Nenpòt andikap oswa limit,en,Kòm yo grandi,en,Pwogram nan plezi,en,Aktivite fizik yo pral ede chak timoun yo rive jwenn pwòp meyè pèsonèl yo pou karakteristik tankou kapasite,en,res,en,kòdinasyon,en,Kowòdinasyon men-je,en,ladrès ak konsyans espasyal,en,Nan vire amelyorasyon fizik sa yo pral ede ak byennèt jeneral yo ak kontantman yo,en,Ak,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. And, tout tan,en,Timoun yo pral gen plezi imans,en,fè zanmi ak amelyore ladrès sosyal,en,Oto-konfyans ak plis ankò sou wout la,en,Pèsonèl,en,Sosyal,en,Devlopman emosyonèl,en,'Psed',en,se twazyèm nan twa zòn yo premye nan kourikoulòm nou an,en,pèsonèl,en,yon pati nan li gen pou objaktif pou asire ke timoun yo ka gade apre aspè nan lavi yo tèt yo,en,endepandamman jere bezwen pèsonèl tankou pwòpte,en,fòmasyon twalèt,en,manje an sante ak sou sa,en,sosyal,en,emosyone,en,Aspè nan li vize ede timoun yo anfòm nan ak granmoun ak kamarad klas bò kote yo,en,Sipòte youn ak lòt,en,tèt yo santi yo sipòte pa lòt moun ak ansanm aprann jere emosyon ak konpòte yo nan akseptab,en,Fason ki apwopriye yo,en,Jan yo aprann fè tout bagay sa yo,en,Yo pral vin plis konfyans,en,santi w rezon,en, the children will have been having immense fun, making friends and improving social skills, self-confidence and more along the way.
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, pi fasil rezoud nenpòt konfli ak fòme pi pre zanmi ak kamarad klas ak kreye lyezon pi fò ak anplwaye yo,en,Tout bagay sa yo pral aji kòm yon fondasyon sosyal ak emosyonèl yo bati tout lòt bagay sou,en,Lòt 'zòn espesifik' nan kourikoulòm lan,en,Kouri nan paralèl ak la,en,Premye Zòn,en,genyen,en,Lòt zòn nan konsantre pou pepinyè tankou Roxeth,en,ki konfòme yo ak fondasyon an EYFS ekselan pou kourikoulòm bonè ane yo,en,se premye nan kat zòn ki rete yo nan konsantre,en,Yon kourikoulòm ta dwe Malerezman manke si timoun yo pa t 'fini konn nan fen etid la,en,Alfabetizasyon se absoliman fondamantal epi yo pral bay chak timoun piti kòmanse a trè pi bon yo lè yo kite anviwònman bonè ane yo kòmanse lekòl la,en,Sou figi li,en,Li nan tout sou lekti ak ekri,en,Poutan,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, Jwenn dwa sa yo pral ede ak anpil,en,lòt,en,zòn nan aprann,en,Nan Roxeth,en,Nou ankouraje timoun pepinyè yo,en,Pran plezi,en,soti nan lekti,en,Apre tout,en,Yon fwa yo ka li yo pral konprann anpil plis sou mond lan soti nan materyèl ki pa fiksyon ak anpil plis sou posiblite yo nan imajinasyon lan ak kreyativite soti nan liv fiksyon,en,Konsa,en,Yo gen aksè a yon lajè,en,Rich varyete de materyèl lekti,en,Gramè,en,òtograf,en,ponktyasyon,en,Fonetik ak konpreyansyon jeneral nan yon gwo varyete sijè pral tout ale men-an-men ak lekti aktif ak regilye,en,Nan yon fason menm jan an,en,Ekri ap benefisye tou,en,Kòm timoun yo aprann rekonèt òtograf ki kòrèk la,en,konpozisyon ak estrikti fraz ak sou sa,en,Ekspozisyon nan varyete rich nou yo nan liv pral manje imajinasyon yo epi yo ede yo yo dwe plis kreyatif tèt yo,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. Nou menm tou nou ankouraje timoun nou yo vèrbalize,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, Depi lè a yo kite anviwònman bonè ane nou yo,en,Yo pral aprann ladrès matematik voulu yo ak konsèp yo ke yo pral bezwen yo nan lòd yo frape tè a kouri lè yo kòmanse lekòl la,en,Konprann mond lan,en,se sizyèm zòn kle nou an nan konsantre nan kourikoulòm lan nan Roxeth Nursery,en,Li se yon zòn trè laj men enpòtan nan etid pou jèn timoun yo nan pepinyè a ak yon sèl ki pral kanpe yo nan bon plas pral anvwa,en,gen anpil bò kote yo e yo bezwen konprann li epi bay tout bagay yo wè kontèks,en,Avèk sa nan tèt ou,en,Nou pral ede yo rekonèt,en,konprann,en,dekri e menm pafwa trase sa ki imedyatman bò kote yo,en,Yo pral aprann tou sou teknoloji a yo wè epi sèvi ak bò kote yo,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. Jaden bèl nou an bay timoun ase opòtinite yo aprann sou mond natirèl la ak Flora yo ak fon ki tou pre,en,Yo pral aprann tou sou lòt kominote yo,en,tou de nan UK a ak aletranje,en,ki gen ladan aspè tankou kilti,en,kwayans ak relijyon,en,Yon lòt fwa ankò,en,Èske w gen yon baz ekselan,en,nan yon laj byen bonè,en,Nan konpreyansyon nan mond lan pral kanpe yo nan gwo plas pral anvwa,en,Atizay ekspresif,en,Desen,en,se zòn final la nan konsantre nan eyfs nou an dirije kourikoulòm,en,Li se tou youn nan zòn yo ke timoun yo jwenn pi plezi jan li ba yo libète a eksprime tèt yo,en,dwe imajinè ak kreyatif,en,E menm jwenn sal de tan zan tan,en,Yon gran varyete medya,en,Ekipman ak zouti yo disponib nan yo nan pepinyè a ak aktivite ankouraje timoun yo patisipe ak,en,kreye,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. Li pa sèlman atizay,en,poutan,en,Timoun yo ka enplike tèt yo nan aktivite wòl-jwe,en,Yo ka chante,en,danse,en,rakonte istwa ak fè,en,Imajinasyon yo ka kouri revòlt yo epi yo dwe gratis jan yo ka eksprime tèt yo ak kreyativite yo nan yon varyete moun rich nan fason,en,Nou swiv kourikoulòm nan etap bonè Fondasyon an nan pepinyè nou an,en,Lyen sa yo eksplike eyfs yo,en,Tout-sou-a-eyfs-powpoint-ifujx6,en,Oswa isit la,en,a-gid-a-ou-pitit-aprantisaj-ak-devlopman,en,EYFS dirije kourikoulòm nan Roxeth se nan gwo pati sou ede yo yo dwe 'lekòl-pare' pa tan an yo rive nan laj la nan senk,en,Li bay timoun yo tou,en,kòmanse nan pi bon nan lavi yo,en,jeneralman,en,Chak sipò yo bay yo satisfè pwòp meyè pèsonèl yo,en,rive potansyèl pi gwo yo nan chak zòn nan etid,en,Atravè pèsonalize objektif-anviwònman,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.

& nbsp;

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.
