Sun Shine Nursery follows the UK Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, a framework widely adopted by British-style nurseries across Abu Dhabi and the UK. EYFS settings typically organise learning around seven areas of development: communication and language, physical development, personal, social and emotional development, literacy, mathematics, understanding the world, and expressive arts and design. In practice, nurseries delivering EYFS generally use play as the main vehicle for learning, with children encouraged to explore, ask questions and build confidence at their own pace. Adults tend to plan activities that respond to each child's interests and stage of development, gradually introducing more structured pre-literacy and pre-numeracy skills as children move towards the older nursery age groups. Because Sun Shine Nursery serves children from the N0 stage through to N4 and SN provision, the EYFS approach would typically be adapted across these groups, with younger children focusing on sensory exploration and secure attachments, and older children building towards greater independence and readiness for school. Parents wanting specifics on how this is delivered day to day are advised to speak with the nursery directly.
