Our Ethos
At Leaping Frogs we strive to provide a fun, caring and safe environment where young children are nurtured by enthusiastic, creative and loving staff to become independent, confident, imaginative, happy and resilient.
OUR MISSION IS TO GIVE EVERY CHILD THE BEST EARLY YEARS EXPERIENCE POSSIBLE, CREATING MEMORIES THAT WILL LAST A LIFETIME!
We celebrate each child's uniqueness and encourage every child to explore and learn through play, focussing on a 'hands on', 'old school' approach making mud pies and building dens with sticks.
Provide a place where children fully embrace 'The great outdoors' and learn to appreciate nature and all the learning opportunities it provides. Where children are encouraged to jump in muddy puddles, roll in the Autumn leaves and make snow angels in freshly fallen snow. Children have the freedom to explore and express themselves at every opportunity.
We want children to become confident communicators with an inquisitive mind, curious to explore with AWE and WONDER about the world around them. We encourage them to ask questions to extend their own knowledge and teach them to respect the opinions and contributions of others. We never tire of the question 'why'
We teach children to be independent in everything they do, gently nurturing them to develop their own skills and abilities.
From putting on their own suits to knowing their own minds and making their own choices.
Children will develop resilience and have a 'never give up' and 'keep trying' attitude in their everyday life and adapt easily to changes in routines and environment. To be confident to explore new activities and experiences with enthusiasm and interest.
Children are taught to respect and be kind and caring to all living creatures, from our furry and feathered friends in our 'mini farm' to our human friends too! Making lasting friendships along the way.
Creativity shines⭐at Leaping Frogs, where drama, art, music and song explodes! Children (and staff) express themselves through singing, dancing, dressing up and colour everyday, we just love it!
Every day is filled with a vibrant exuberance a place where laughter and learning through play and fun is paramount!
"Leaders and staff are excellent role models. They set high behavioural expectations. Children behave exceptionally well. For example, they have a strong understanding of fairness and confidently negotiate turn taking with their friends" OFSTED 2018
