In the Oak Room, we encourage children to have a go and take an active part in their own learning and routines.

Children are supported to:

• make choices

• help tidy away

• feed themselves

• begin managing coats and shoes

• develop toileting skills

• wash and dry their hands

• choose resources independently

• solve simple problems

• keep trying when something feels difficult

​

At this age, children are beginning to understand both their own feelings and those of others. Our practitioners model kindness, calm communication and respectful behaviour.
