Curriculum & Approach
Cherry Tree Nursery follows the British Curriculum, delivered through the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. Learning is planned around a balance of adult-led and child-initiated activities, with an emphasis on hands-on, play-based exploration that supports each child's holistic development. Staff use ongoing planning and assessment strategies to track a child's progress and extend their learning, sharing developmental records with parents on a termly basis. The nursery's educators hold recognised early years qualifications, including CACHE Level 2, Level 3 and Level 5 certifications as required by the KHDA, alongside multicultural experience gained across the UAE. Regular field trips connected to each term's topic form part of the curriculum, giving children the chance to learn beyond the nursery classroom and develop early critical thinking skills. Extracurricular activities are also woven into the programme to build essential skills and support key developmental milestones.
Ages & Programs
Age range: 45 days to 6 years
Cherry Tree Nursery organises children into age-appropriate rooms as they progress through the early years. Babies, from 45 days old until they begin walking, are cared for in a home-like setting with sensory toys and close attention from experienced staff, alongside open communication with parents. The Toddler room, known as the Busy Bees, caters for children from one to two years old, focusing on emerging vocabulary, coordination and self-expression through resources such as role-play areas, cosy reading corners and activity table-top boxes. Developmental progress in this room is recorded each term in line with the EYFS framework. The Preschool room, the Blue Birds, supports children aged two to three years as they develop independence and learn through imitation, using role play and group activities. The nursery continues to offer classes up to Foundation Stage 2, supporting the transition into primary school reception classes.
