All About Early Years

Commitment to Early Education

The Early Years Team at Bridgewater Park is committed to providing children with the best possible start to school life, providing children opportunities to follow their interests to ensure future success.

School Values and Environment

Our school values of Kindness, Integrity and Tenacity are embedded into all that we do in EYFS as not only do we aim to prepare our students academically for the next stages in their life, but we also make it our mission to develop our students into the best versions of themselves through providing them with a safe, inspiring and positive environment. We strive to ensure our children are happy, enthusiastic and confident learners with aspirations to excel in whatever they choose to do.

Fostering a Love for Learning

Children are encouraged to investigate, take risks, play, discover and create with each and every small achievement being celebrated as we endeavour to foster a love of learning.

Forest School

Our wonderful HLTA Miss Lee runs weekly Forest School sessions with the children. Forest School is a holistic and learner-led curriculum with allows the children to develop themselves through healthy engagement with risk, problem-solving and self-discovery, all within the natural environment in a hands-on and thoughtful manner. No matter the weather, you will find our Early Years children outside enjoying the great outdoors, whether it be splashing in muddy puddles or tending to their plants and vegetables in our very own garden.

Supporting Early Development

At Bridgewater Park, we know that children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. So it is essential that every child receives the best possible start in life and is given the support that enables them to fulfil their potential.
