A Typical Day at Windmill

    Morning session

    Lunchtime

  • 1pm
    Afternoon

    Goodbye

On arrival Parents/Carers are asked to say good bye to their child at the main door. Children are asked to put their lunch box on the trolley, they wash their hands. The children find their name card on the back of the drawer unit and place it on a drawer of their choice before sitting on the carpet for the register. Their drawer is used for art work and any letters that need to be sent home.

Morning session consists of Adult led group time, free play and we have snack around 10am This is a social time where some of the best discussions happen! Snacks are always healthy with a drink of milk or water. We also encourage the children to pour their own drinks! Children are encouraged to help by counting out plates and cups, cutting fruit and vegetables, placing cups and plates in the washing up bowl.

Children eat packed lunches together under staff supervision. Once finished, children are free to play with the resources, toys, arts and crafts. For those leaving at 1pm, parents/carers arrive whilst other children carry on playing.

Afternoon sessions are a similar format to mornings with adult led group time, free play and a healthy snack at around 2pm.

Tidy up followed by carpet time. Together we close the day with stories and songs ready for parents/carers to collect at 3pm. Our days are free flowing and flexible. If a parent needs to collect a child early for any reason, simply let staff know and we will be ready. Our Pre-School sessions are fun-packed and stimulating. Whilst there is a level of routine and familiarity, activities, themes and educational content varies each day.

Our Events

We go above and beyond!

Each week we have visits from the following companies (at no extra cost to you as parents/carers)

 

*Tot Bop (totbop.co.uk)

*Yoga Peaches

*Tinymites music

We are able to keep these groups at no extra charge to our families- due to our fundraising efforts, grants from Buckinghamshire council and charitable donations from local businesses!

At Windmill, we are passionate about bringing learning to life and we support this by offering the children opportunities for hands on learning, such as watching caterpillars turn into butterflies, eggs turn in to chicks, frogs spawn into frogs and so much more! To support our topics and themes we also have visits from professionals, such as real life police officers, vets, nurses and shop keepers! (See gallery below)
