The kangaroo room is situated in the middle of the building with easy access and comfortable, direct access to our outside areas. We recognise that finding the right environment for your child can be a very difficult decision to make for families. Understanding this ensures that we not only provide a fantastic area for your child to learn and develop, but also ensuring we have exceptional experienced staff working with us, together with you.
The kangaroo room is a large open plan area which is a fabulous light, bright and airy environment which is enriched with learning opportunities providing extra challenge and independence, through play based activities enabling our kangaroos to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective learners.
Our kangaroo room welcomes children from 36 months to 60 months and offers a warm friendly environment for them to make the transition from home to nursery or from parrot room to kangaroo room as seamlessly as possible.
The kangaroo room is set out so we can really enable our children to engage in free play, as well as providing adult led and planned activities which are based around individual children’s interests. Our carefully selected team easily adapt activities on offer to suit different abilities as well as explore different strands of interests.
The children can access a variety of activities freely such as role play, music and movement, sand and water, construction, arts and craft, ICT and opportunities both indoors and out that will allow and promote each child to encounter positive, motivating learning experiences across all areas of their learning and development. Our room allows children, to be children where they can play, explore, create, investigate and have an unlimited amount of time, attention and encouragement from adults.
The kangaroos have regular, free-flow daily direct access to their kangaroo island outdoor provision enabling us to provide a continuation of our indoor environment outside. In the kangaroo island garden, there is a large, covered area, outdoor handwash sink, mud kitchen, sand pit, water wall, bug hotel, weather station and much, much more. The outdoor environment is not restricted to the garden with access to many local areas including Pollok country park, Silverburn etc
Our outdoor provision enables our kangaroos to begin a thought provoking journey of exploration, extended imaginative journeys all in a safe, secure environment. The use of the outdoors is paramount for any child; however, for our kangaroos we ensure the continuation of opportunities, and learning as well as play promotes each child’s independence and self-confidence; thus enabling our older children to access their own risk and gain knowledge of the outside world and of course being role models to our younger explorers.
