Curriculum & Approach
Monroe's Nursery delivers the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum across all age groups, from babies through to FS2. The approach is play-based and child-centred, with activities designed to nurture inquisitive minds, build strong personalities and develop vital social skills at every stage. Each age group follows a tailored daily rhythm that includes a warm welcome and free play, engaging hands-on lessons, social and physical activity, and creative expression through reading, art and music. For babies, this means sensory play and holistic development guided by Birth to Five principles; for toddlers, it means growing independence through child-led exploration; and for FS1 and FS2 children, it means structured play focused on literacy, numeracy, STEM concepts and early academic readiness. The nursery states that children completing their early education at Monroe's are well prepared to progress into a range of curriculum schools, including IB, American, British and Indian systems, having developed academically, emotionally and socially.
Ages & Programs
Age range: 3 months to 5 years
Monroe's Nursery organises children into five age-based groups, each with an approach tailored to their stage of development. Babies aged 3 to 12 months experience sensory-rich, nurturing care, while Toddlers aged 1 to 2 years are supported in building independence and curiosity through child-centred activities, positive potty training and daily reading. The Nursery group, for children aged 2 to 3 years, focuses on language development, creativity and independence through structured play, art and pretend play. FS1, for 3 to 4 year olds, introduces daily routines that balance structured and free play with a focus on communication, physical and personal development, alongside cultural integration through local celebrations. FS2, the final stage for children aged 4 to 5 years, builds foundational literacy and numeracy skills, introduces early science and technology concepts, and continues to nurture personal development through arts and play, preparing children for the transition to primary school.

Daily Schedule
Across all age groups, the day at Monroe's Nursery follows a consistent structure: a warm welcome and settling-in period, engaging hands-on lessons, social and physical activity in safe supervised spaces, and time dedicated to creativity through reading, art and music. For babies, this takes the form of gentle greetings, sensory exploration, outdoor strolls and interactive storytelling. Toddlers move through fun independence-building tasks, creative play, motor-skill development and library visits, while Nursery, FS1 and FS2 children follow more structured routines that combine free play with focused activities in literacy, numeracy, STEM, art, music and dance, alongside outdoor play to build confidence and physical skills.
