what do children learn at all-day care
From the age of 0 to 5 your child changes so much, it’s a joy to watch. As they grow, you might consider enrolling them in a Child Care Centre.
And, of course, you want the very best for your child. So trusting other people with being a part of their development is a big step, how do you make sure they’re receiving only the best care and pre-school education? Fortunately, in the U.K the Department for Education created an Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to make sure your child receives only the best care. The EYFS Framework outlines 7 key areas which must be developed in child care Centre’s and we’ve outlined them below with examples of activities that your child can take part in when in All-Day Care (ADC).
The EYFS framework breaks down the 7 key skills into two groups: the Prime areas and Specific areas. The Prime Areas cover the 3 core areas which your child will develop before they formally start education, and includes their development as a person. These 3 areas are vital for igniting children’s curiosity for learning, and for developing their ability to learn and develop relationships and just to thrive generally. The areas are:
- Communication and Language
- Physical Development
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
The Specific areas provide opportunities for the Prime areas to be strengthened and applied, with all EYFS providers also supporting children to learn in four key areas which will supplement their personal development.
These are:
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Understanding the World
- Expressive Arts and Design
Prime Areas
1. Communication and Language
Going beyond simple vocabulary building, this Area is about giving children the opportunity to experience a rich language environment. Doing this helps them to develop their confidence and skill level when expressing themselves. This helps them thrive in a variety of situations, and equally teaches them how to listen to others.
2. Physical Development
In just 5 years children go from being entirely dependent upon their parents to being little people who possess many of the generalised skills they’ll need throughout their lives. So, this Area is focused on helping children to become active and interactive, aiding the development of their coordination, control and movement abilities. This area also includes teaching children about food and its relationship to health, as well as the importance of physical activity for a healthy life..
3. Personal, Social and Emotional Development
This area is concerned with helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves and others. This includes helping them to: have confidence in their own abilities and form positive relationships and developing respect for others. It also covers learning to manage their feelings and aiding them in understanding appropriate behaviour in groups. By providing them with a good grounding in all of these areas children are able to adapt to the wider world as they enter it, and make the most of the education that is to come.

Q&A
Q - Where Are You Located?
A - We are located directly behind Port Vila International School (PVIS) - in the Tassiriki area, Port Vila (See our map page for directions)
Q - Do I Pay for Public or Family Hoildays?
A - We do not charge for Public Holidays when they land on your normal day attending. With Family Hoidays, we would ask that a place holder fee of 1,000vt Per normal attending day.
Q - Why the Fixed Daily Rate
A - We provide parents with flexible child care facilities and we employ our staff to cover your and your childs needs throughout the day. The fixed daily rate gives a clear and uncomplicated fee structure and allows parents the opertunity and flexibility to manage other commitments by opening at 6:50am and closing at 5:30pm so that we are here for you when you need us.
We do not offer half day fee options, however, our fees do include French / English learning through song and play which we believe provides an enhanced learning experiance. Fees are also inclusive of breakfast and afternoon snacks.
Children do not need to be tolilet tained, but parents would need to supply nappies and wipes. We will work with you (when you feel your child is ready) to take the big step into toilet training.
Q - What's Your Child to Staff Ratio?
A - Ratios set out the minimum standards for the numbers of staff to children. It is necessary for All-day care to exceed those standards so that suitable numbers of staff are always availible e.g. to cover staff hoildays or during the childrens one-to-one time.
Toddlers 1:4
Kindergarden 1:12
All-day care provides child care in group settings, which means staff to child ratios are easily maintained.
If you wish, we are happy for your existing nanny to attend for the first few days, but from experiance, we also feel it is best for the nanny to gradually spend less time at the day care to allow your child to build a relationship with our staff, become independent and socialize with other children.
Q - Whats does Breakfast or Snacks included mean?
A - Breakfast includes cereals, juice, milk, toast and affternon snacks include sessional fruits and vegetables, crackers, noodles etc. (the selection changes each day). Any special dietary requirements can be discussed.
Q - Payment of Fees
A - We issue invoices monthly for payment in advance. With some notice of around two days, parents may be able to add or move attending days (subject to ratios). If your child is sick or misses the normal attending day, the full day rate sitil applies, as we still have to pay our staff.
If you have any further questions, please do call, email or come around and see us. We're here to help and provide solutions to your child care needs in Port Vila.
