Older 2 year old's transition to Preschool just before they turn 3 years old to Chapter House. Chapter House is dedicated to meeting the needs of children aged 3 - 5 years. The younger children (from 2.9m) are in smaller key carer groups. Children have freedom in the house and have daily opportunities to access all the space and experiences offered by each of the rooms. Staff work with their own groups, moving around with their children ensuring that all the time the children are accessing activities and resources that are of interest to them as individuals.
