Background
St Peter’s Children’s Centre is a 65-place facility, which was conceived as an integral part of St Peter’s Community Learning Centre. It is on the site of St Peter’s CE Primary School and was opened to its first children in September 2002. There are approximately 84 children registered at the Centre at the time of writing (November 2023).
Planning
The Centre’s planning is linked to the updated Early Years Foundation Stage and Ofsted Framework. These incorporate age and stage specific activities, thereby meeting each child’s individual needs. The activities are play-based, to allow high levels of individual learning and spontaneity. We implement a system of compiling individual learning journeys which will follow each child into their chosen Reception class.
The Centre
Our Centre comprises of Sam’s room offering care from birth to two years, with a separate snooze room. It is fully equipped to accommodate up to nine babies.
When a child reaches two years of age, they join Jame’s Room, which is designed and equipped specifically with the younger two year olds in mind. We also have the Ladybird room which is for our rising 2 year olds, with adjoining doors to allow free flow and transition into our Peacock
Annual report/main folder
room where the three and four year old children are accommodated. Here, children have the opportunity to learn through play, and participate in the activities provided, using the free flow outside doorway, allowing the children to access lots of fun outdoor activities.
Outside
Our Centre also includes the use of three fully enclosed outdoor play areas, our own specific area being totally redesigned and developed, providing an excellent learning environment, complementing our daily planned play sessions in a safe and stimulating atmosphere. We have a community buggy-park, which enables parents and staff to store buggies where they are safe, secure and protected from the elements.
Policies
The Centre’s policy statements are structured to offer children and their families the best possible care and learning opportunities. They are subject to review, and the manager and the Board welcome comments or suggestions from users. There is a parent/carer suggestion box in the Centre’s reception area. Copies of all policies are available for inspection.
Children with special educational needs
The aim of the Centre is for each child to reach his or her potential in all areas of development at his or her own rate, including children who need additional support or who have particular needs or disabilities. Key people work with outside agencies and take specific action to help children make the best possible progress. The Special Needs policy relates to the DfES/SEND Code of Practice.
Key Persons
In the Centre, we operate a key person system, to enable relationships to develop between staff, parents/carers and children. Key persons are responsible for an allocated group of children, and provide detailed assessments of children’s achievements, activities and daily routines.
