Importance of FS1 at the Nursery

Why keep your child at the nursery for FS1? How we prepare children for the big school? How can FS1 give your child an extra boost of confidence before the big school?

Get these and more questions answered by our Head Teacher Ms Cait and the Foundation team Ms Theresa and Ms Marise on Tuesday 24th of October at 17:30 PM at the nursery. It’s free event and open to all.

FS1 is a world of wonder for children before they head over to “big school”. They are encouraged to make decisions, research, plan for their activities and be part of the daily decisions making. Little tasks are given to challenge the children, we have daily helpers who choose activities, set the table for snack time, help with register time and many more little things. All of this helps the children to gain confidence in speech, handle conflict, make decisions and most of all help them become their own person.

Children are prepared for moving to big school by learning a lot of academics through play, researching the things they need answers for, helping each other with activities and making friends. At the end of the year, our Foundation Class graduates with a lovely ceremony that parents talk about for years to come. Although expectations are higher in these classes, we never forget the importance of providing a caring and fun atmosphere with an emphasis on individual development and growth.

We will always have extremely fond and treasured memories of our girls time at Children’s Oasis. The teachers are so creative and fun, always thinking of new ways to engage the children and the thoughtful and varied outdoor areas were always a favourite of theirs. We loved the intimate, friendly feel and all the little extras which makes it feel that you are part of a community. Thanks for everything, we really couldn’t have asked for a better start and we will miss you all.

From Paul and Katy Rogers (Dad & Mum)

What I love about Children's Oasis is how well looked after my children are and how comfortable they feel. They know the names of most of the staff and will always say 'hi' and often stop for a chat. It's a calm and nurturing environment.

From Zoi (Mum)

We love children’s Oasis Nursery. It has been a part of our lives for over 8 years with both our girls going there. The staff are all amazing and really care for the children.

Que alegría haberlos encontrado! Estamos muy agradecidos de comenzar los años escoltarse de nuestra hija con su apoyo! Desde las maestras, hasta la directora y el ambiente de la escuela tuvimos una experiencia fenomenal y estamos entusiasmados de volver en Septiembre! Muchas gracias Children's Oasis!!!

From Adriana (Mum)

Both my boys were at Children Oasis from the time they were 2 and until they were 4 years old; first attending the Spanish Programme and then, FS1. Both classes were great! The teachers are incredibly professional and caring. The communication with the parents is excellent and reports are detailed. They make learning fun and engaging for the kids who learn through hands-on activities and play. The facilities are beautiful with lots of stimulating and educational books and toys. I couldn't ask for more during those early years for my children!
