General Information

In addition to specific information relating to our Roots room or Wings room, here you will find more general information that is important to you and about our setting as a whole.

Key Person System

We operate a key person system. This allows the key person to develop a close relationship with both parent and child, sharing information and having discussions about the child, planning for their progress and writing reports, allowing a consistent approach to their development and learning.

Outdoor Clothing

We try to get outside as much as possible, whether that be down to the playground, on to the school field, in our garden and outdoor play space, a walk around the village, across the nearby fields or to our Forest School site. Outdoor clothing is a must! Find out more.

​

Breakfast, Lunch & Tea

We believe that nutrition and a healthy, balanced diet is essential for a child’s development, concentration and energy levels. We provide freshly prepared, nutritious meals, following a 6 day rolling menu programme that ensures the children have a balanced diet and also introduces them to new tastes from around the world.

Baby's Days

We use a secure online system called Baby’s Days at Roots to Wings. We use Baby’s Days to record a whole host of important information about your child, to observe and track their learning progress, and to communicate with you about vital things that are happening in our setting on a daily basis.

Our curriculum, EYFS & Ofsted

​The Government sets a framework for us to work within at Roots to Wings. This is called the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and begins from birth, moving through the preschool years and on into the reception year at school, finishing at the end of the first year of school. Information about how we operate within this framework together with our Ofsted report can be found here.

Sessions, Fees & Term Dates

Our sessions run from 8am until 6pm from Monday to Friday during term times. We are also open during school holidays subject to demand. Our fee structure is dependent on the age of your child. Further information about our Sessions, Fees, and Term Dates can be found here.
