At Rockmount Nursery we aim to tailor our topics to suit the children's needs. There will be many varied and exciting activities on offer each day. The children will listen to stories and songs and even enjoy some exercises from a computer program called, '5 a Day'.

Both inside the classroom and in our outdoor learning environment, children will be able to explore and experiment through water play using a variety of equipment including funnels and tubes, water mills, mini nets, bubbles and much more. They will investigate sand; building sand castles and using little diggers in role play activities.

There is also a large creative focus with endless model making possibilities using recycled materials, lots of decorative elements and of course glitter!

Construction is very important in Nursery and children have access to a wide range of construction toys and equipment such as Lego, Duplo, train sets, cars, Tap Tap, 2D and 3D shapes and lots more!

Mark-making is an integral part of Nursery life and children will be provided with opportunities to draw and write throughout the Nursery environment as well as in a dedicated mark-making area, with mini books, stencils, whiteboards and pens and a range of varied mark-making tools.

Mathematics is also key and will be provided through a wide range of exciting counting games, resources and activities.

ICT features throughout the Nursery setting and is used on an individual basis through educational games and programs on desktop computers as well as the use of the Interactive Whiteboard for whole class ICT activities.
