Remembering Our Queen at Footsteps

  • Chalfont St Peter, Farnborough, Footsteps News, Maple Cross, Oving, Watermead
The passing of our monarch Queen Elizabeth II was a huge loss to the Royal family and to the Nation. We felt it was important that we helped the children within our settings to make sense of this national event, its importance in History and also to help them negotiate any feelings around the events that might arise. But as you can imagine, this is something that needs to be […]

Footsteps Oving get READy for World Book Day

  • Oving
At Footsteps Oving we love to read and learn through lots of activities driven by our love for our favourite stories.  Reading is so important for language development, recognising letters and most of all getting lost in a world of imagination. This February we have been very busy finding out our Children’s favourites and putting our creativity to good use.  We have explored the thick oozy mud, long swishy grass, […]

Internet Safety

  • Aylesbury, Chalfont St Peter, Community, Farnborough, Footsteps News, Forest School, Maple Cross, Oving, Watermead
Today, children grow up learning how to use technology just like learning how to speak or walk. Touchscreen technologies have made the internet far more accessible than it used to be. At Footsteps internet safety is a hot topic, and one which we take very seriously.  It is important for children to learn to be e-safe from an early age and we ensure that we play a vital part in […]

Forest School at Footsteps

  • Aylesbury, Chalfont St Peter, Charity, Community, Farnborough, Footsteps News, Forest School, Maple Cross, Oving, Watermead
It’s a sad truth of modern life that kids are spending less time outside than ever before. The average child spends just five hours a week playing outside, compared to a staggering 45.5 hours in front of a screen. This is having a knock-on effect on children’s learning and development. A recent survey found that only  one in three can name a single herb, and 50% struggle to name five […]

"My husband and I cannot possibly thank the Footsteps team enough for the way they have looked after our daughter over the past two years. The team have shown her nothing but patience and care, always building her up and providing copious amounts of cuddles.

I’ve never known any other preschool to provide such attentive daily care, my daughter was so well looked after. They always kept a line of continuous communication with us regardless of which staff member was at the gate taking children in or out. The team were continuously developing new ways to help her feel comfortable and communicate her feelings.

They have been there for my daughter through some huge milestones and the difference they have made is immeasurable. I think the footsteps team is second to none and we will miss them dearly".

"The facilities at the nursery are fantastic and the outside space is both exceptional and unrivalled in the local area. This together with their experienced and dedicated members of staff, make it difficult to persuade my children to come home." Mrs. Cosma
