What is it like to attend this early years setting?

This provision meets requirements Children settle quickly when they arrive at the club. They excitedly tell visitors what they enjoy doing.

For example, children say, 'I love all the different craft activities we can do'. Children spend sustained periods of time persevering with making detailed bracelets and necklaces using beads. They are supported well by staff, who show them what to do and then encourage them to have a go themselves.

Children benefit from strong relationships with staff. They snuggle up to staff when they feel tired. Staff ask if they would like their favourite blanket to cuddle.

This helps children to feel safe and secure. Chi...ldren's behaviour is exemplary. They share toys well and take turns with each other.

Children use good manners, and say please and thank you without being prompted by staff. They understand the consistent behaviour expectations staff have. For example, children explain to visitors they only use a soft ball inside when playing football, so that others do not get hurt.

Children are encouraged to be independent. They tidy up before snack time. When they arrive, they take their shoes off and put them away by themselves.

Children pour drinks from jugs throughout the day when they become thirsty.

Children are provided with healthy snacks. Staff talk to children about what food they enjoy and how they can make healthy choices.Staff are very attentive towards the children they care for.
