From the Early Years @ Lightcliffe
A committee-run, nonprofit preschool called Early Years @ Lightcliffe is located in the Christ Church Center on Leeds Road. In order for kids to play, learn, and develop to their greatest potential, we strive to create a warm and friendly environment.
During the academic year, we provide preschool services (Early Years), after-school care (Older Years), and holiday services (Holiday Club).
Children do not need to be potty trained to attend Early Years; we welcome children from two years old to school age. A variety of imaginative play activities are available to kids, including water play, sand play, dough, role play, sketching, painting, and crafts.
Since 1994, we have been providing locals with excellent service. We have an Ofsted registration (registration number is EY303768).
The Early Years Foundation Stage, the curriculum we use, is divided into four specific areas: Expressive Arts and Design; Mathematics; Understanding the World; and Literacy, in addition to three main areas: Personal, Social and Emotional Development, Communication and Language, and Physical Development.
Since we recently acquired the entire structure, we have been renting out our main hall to neighbourhood groups, societies, and birthday celebrations.
