Introducing MASK
and the Holiday Playscheme |
|
MASK
was established to create a happy environment where excellence
is the norm and children develop to their full potential. The
daily routine is set up in such a way that the children should
learn through play and so a wide variety of activities are
available to enable the children to develop mentally and
physically as well as learning how to integrate socially. We
place great emphasis on social skills, with discipline and
courtesy treated as standard by both adults and children.
Our aim is that
the children should respect others as well as themselves with
play situations offering ample opportunity for sharing, turn
taking etc.
We believe in
treating children as individuals as well as catering for all
their needs. Our thinking is that children’s learning is at the
heart of our understanding. |
|
The Daily Routine |
|
Children
are happiest in a secure environment. Therefore we
follow a regular daily routine with meals and breaks for
drinks at the same time each day. Thus the day is
broken up into sessions during which there will be a
number of different play activities available aimed to
cover the six area of development, within the foundation
framework.
All
planning is devised around the children’s ability and
development. Topics are orientated around children’s
interests and we always encourage their input, when
doing so.
At both
the Afterschool Club and Holiday Club we incorporate a
variety of arts and crafts, sports, role play, games and
construction toys. We also allow the children the
opportunity to socialise, so that the foundation of
friendships can be formed, in a warm friendly
environment. |

The Staff at MASK |
|
MASK is co-ordinated and
managed by Daisy Martin Working alongside her is Tracey
Osborne, they are both trained and experienced at NVQ
level 3.
The staff are currently
working towards a Quality Assurance Scheme, which helps
ensure high quality child care and meets the conditions
of the Children’s Act 1998 plus all other relevant
childcare legislation, wherever they apply. Policies
and procedures are available on request. |

|
Walking Bus |
|
We provide a
Walking Bus service to and from Shepherdswell First School,
Orchards School and Penwith First School. This consists of two
members of staff collecting registered children from this area
at present. Surrounding schools could be considered in the
future with a mini bus service. We then take them to MASK at the
Willows. There will be an extra charge for this service. |
