The Foundation Stage at Blossom Pre-school offers exceptional early learning opportunities for children aged three to five. We prioritize fostering development and advancement through structured play, combining adult-guided and child-driven activities. Grounded in educational and neuroscience research, we advocate that play is fundamental for children's holistic development, fostering confidence as they engage in exploration, problem-solving, and social interactions.
What Programs Does Blossom Pre-School Offer?
We aim for children to learn through self-directed play and structured play facilitated by our skilled educators. At Blossom Pre-schools, children engage in play in communal spaces, including outdoors, to enhance skill development. Our Pre-school operates on four core principles:
Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured.
Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships.
Children learn and develop well in enabling environments with teaching and support from adults, who respond to their individual interests and needs and help them to build their learning over time. Children benefit from a strong partnership between practitioners and parents and/or carers.
Children develop and learn at different rates.

What Are the Three Prime Areas of Development?
For the areas of learning we can mention them this way.
Learning and Development
There are seven areas of learning and development that must shape educational programs in Early Years settings. British values are interlinked with our EYFS curriculum and where possible links are made to the UK to promote and develop these fundamentals. All areas of learning and development are important and interconnected.
Three areas are particularly crucial for igniting children’s curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, and for building their capacity to learn, form relationships and thrive. These three areas, the prime areas, are:
Communication and language development- involves giving children opportunities to experience a rich language environment; to develop their confidence and skills in expressing themselves; and to speak and listen in a range of situations.
Physical development- involves providing opportunities for young children to be active and interactive; and to develop their co-ordination, control, and movement. Children must also be helped to understand the importance of physical activity and to make healthy choices in relation to food.
Personal, social and emotional development- involves helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves, and others; to form positive relationships and develop respect for others; to develop social skills and learn how to manage their feelings; to understand appropriate behavior in groups; and to have confidence in their own abilities.
What Are the Four Specific Areas of Learning?
We also support children in four specific areas, through which the three prime areas are strengthened and applied.
Literacy – involves children learning to recognize print in their environment. Later learning how letters link to the sounds and begin to read and write
Mathematics – children have opportunities to develop counting and calculation skills, to use numbers in everyday activities and recognize and describe shapes and measures
Understanding the World – children have opportunities to find out about people and communities, the environment and technology
Expressive Arts and Design – involves exploring feelings and ideas through music, dance, role play and design
