We have a large outside space with a separate area for our under 2’s.

Safety is paramount at Tudor Manor therefore we have soft tarmac to enable the children to take controlled risks and explore the garden safely.

 

At Tudor Manor we recognise that children thrive and learn in different environments, which is why we bring the inside outside with a range of equipment and activities. We follow a 4 week rota of different toys and equipment which offers a variety of play and learning opportunities each week.

So whether it’s learning about the natural world in our growing area, driving cars learning about road safety or just relaxing in our summer house reading a book or being creative, there are always plenty of opportunities for learning in our garden.

 

Physical activity is vital for children’s health and development. We have a large variety of physical equipment to suit the interests and abilities of all children. These can be self selected from our P.E trolleys. Planned activities take part daily to encourage children to participate in physical activity.

 

We provide pushchairs to enable us to go on walks to explore the great outdoors in all its wonder. With set routes and risk assessments carried out to continuously ensure the safety of your child. Lowering  our ratios to 1-2 for all ages during walks and trips.
