Our Approach and Inspiration
Report
We are inspired by various approaches here at Casterton, approaches such as The Curiosity Approach, Reggio Emilia, and Hygge. Babies are born with curiosity. It is an intrinsic ability that supports children to learn and develop. We encourage that curiosity by fostering children's observation skills, questions and explorations, creating experiences that explore their creativity and imagination.
Our Rooms
Report
Our Nursery offers a rich and interesting environment which allows our children to choose their activities, learning and developing independently both indoors and outdoors. The children actively learn through play, enriched with a variety of adult-led and child-initiated experiences which gives them the motivation to develop their own learning.
