Our Pedagogy “Play is the work of the child" Maria Montessori Learning through play When children learn through play they are exploring and making sense of their world. Child directed play allows children to follow their interests and learn at their own pace. Through play children learn how to interact and communicate with others and develop problem solving skills and cognitive skills such as concentration and critical thinking. Celebrating and supporting children’s play helps promote resilience, emotional regulation and confidence. It’s crucial for child development and the foundation to life-long learning. Learning Stories We use 'Learning Stories' to document and assess children’s learning. The story highlights a significant moment for a child, describing their strenghts, interests, exploration and play. Using photographs, quotes, conversations, and observations, we create a ‘picture’ of learning that is unique to each child. They are shared with parents and avalible in the setting for children to enjoy. Originating from New Zealand’s Te Whariki curriculum, Learning Stories aim to understand and appreciate children’s lived experiences and the meaning they make of them. Planning in partnership with parents Parents and carers are children's first educators and have expert knowledge about their child. Our team are trained in child development and learning. We work in partnership with parents to share knowledge and plan for each childs interests so we can extend their learning through play. We've recently introduced PLODs (Possible Lines of Direction) which is a tool developed by Pen Green. We discuss children's learning regularlly with parents to help us plan activities to support their learning in the setting and at home. The Pen Green Loop The Pen Green Loop best illustrates how we share information with families to support children in our settings. Pen Green explain that when important adults in a child's life give feedback about what's important to the child, this produces a far deeper understanding of the child's learning and development. Our Approach Our teaching and learning methods are rooted in our mission to ‘build brighter futures’ and guided by six fundamental principles: 1. Children at the centre of everything we do At the heart of our approach is a deep understanding of chi ldren. We recognise the uniqueness of every child, and our practice is always child-centred. 2. Holistic approach Our early years pedagogy is all about seeing your child as a whole, understanding their unique needs, and supporting them in a way that respects their individuality. W e consider all aspects of your child’s life and background, and appreciate the impact of their environment on their development and growth. 3. Parents as partners We believe in the power of collaboration and recognise parents as the primary educators of their children. By working closely with you, we can share insights, learn from each other, and strive together to ensure the best outcomes for your child. 4. Positive relationships Positive relationships are crucial to children’s outcomes. We foster positive connections with children, families, other organisations and the wider community. 5. Learning together We view learning as a shared journey where children, families, and practitioners learn together every day. This involves being present, tuning in and celebrating the joy and wonder of the early years. 6. Enabling environment We strive to create a playful, safe, and child-initiated environment where children can be independent and make choices about their play and learning. We encourage risky play to promote learning across the cirriculum and to help develop confidence and resilience. Early Years Foundation Stage We follow the statutory framework of the EYFS which sets the standards for learning, development and care for children from 0-5 years. We also use Development Matters as cirriculum guidance.

SEND Community Services Building trusting relationships with parent/carers allows us to develop and implement support packages for their children's individual learning needs as they progress on to nursery or school. We use toolkits approved by the local council's 'Early Years Team' to assess children and plan their support with parent/carers. Early Years Inclusion Pathway LLoyd Park Children's Charity is now commissioned to deliver a 12 week PEEPS programme called "Learning Together-Preschool' for children 2-4 yrs. (Children under 2 yrs are supported by the local authority's Early Years team). This is an invite only programme for those referred to LBWF's 'Early Years Inclusion Pathway'. Click on the button to the right to find out more on their website: Sessions are provided at no cost to you as part of the government funded 'Family Hubs' offer. This funding has also enabled our practitioner(s) to attend training to deliver these sessions through a charity called Peeple. This charity provides training, planning and resources to support the delivery of Stay and Play sessions with families. As part of the programme you will be asked to complete a short questionnaire at the start and end of the programme. This helps us measure the impact of these sessions and hopefully secure further funding so that more families can benefit from the sessions. You kind find out more about PEEPs on Peeple.org website here: Find our more Peeple.org.uk Please be aware that these links will connect you to external websites. Our charity cannot be repsonsible for the content of these sites including any downloadable files. Please read our policy on links to external web pages here Transition and funding support Our team can support parent/carers with signposting, funding advice and onward referrals. Funding advice includes SENIF (SEN Inclusion Funding) and EHCPs (Education, Health and Care Plan). Onward referrals might be to speech therapy and/or SAC clinic ( Special Advisory Clinic). SENIF EHCP Sensory Play Session Our experienced team deliver this informal open drop-in play session. It's a session primarily for families with SEND children that's also inclusive for all. So, SEND children can play and socialise with their other friends in the same space. The sessions can be tailored to the attendees' needs and are focussed on playing together in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. What's On Bespoke, co-produced activities/projects Our SEND Manager leads on working with families to find out what kinds of services they would like to see provided for their children locally. We're always looking for opportunities to work with local partner organisations to proactively address the gaps in local SEND services. We also have an established working group to identify and secure funding for new projects and activities, so if you have an idea for a service let us know! Our CoCo East co-production collaborative seeks to amplify local voices and to support in family-led activity design and delivery. The group is well represented by families living with SEND so please do come along to one of our online meetings or submit an idea on the dedicated page! More information on CoCo East here Somewhere to Belong Our SEND Manager has also researched and developed this evidence-based programme of support for SEND families. Research found that SEND facilities should be familiy-centred, local and fun. Somewhere to Belong pr ovides support that improves the childs wellbeing and development but also looks at the benefits of inteventions for the whole family. We currently run a session in our adventure play space, Grow wild, on the 3rd Sunday of every month and hope to be expanding our Somewhere to Belong offer in 2025.

Our Story Read All About it! Making news since the 80's! 1/8 Our founder, Pauline, talks about starting the charity When I moved to Aveling Park Road in 1977 there was nowhere for people to go with their children, so I opened up my home to friends and other families. Together we set up a range of activities: keep-fit, coffee mornings, play sessions and Halloween and Bonfire parties. We also used the playscheme in a gardener’s shed and double-decker bus in Lloyd Park. In 1981 the bus was under threat of closure, so we formed the Lloyd Park Action Group and started our campaign to improve services for the community. As a result, we were given use of five portacabins in Lloyd Park and in 1984 we formed The Lloyd Park Parent and Toddler Group; with play sessions every weekday afternoon. Since this time we have continued to campaign and develop community-led services to support local families, and there have been so many successes. From raising the funds to employ our first staff members, securing grants of £1.3 million in 2003 for the building in Lloyd Park and in 2016 winning the contract for Children and Family Centres to enable us to support families across Waltham Forest. My fondest memory of the community coming together to support the charity was in 1992 after our building was completely destroyed by a fire. When I first saw the devastation I thought it was the end of the charity, but our community worked together to get services back up and running within a week. It was quite incredible how everyone rallied together to help us. There have been some amazing p eople involved over the years who have helped make this charity so special. The staff are so critical to its success, but because I'm the figurehead I have been nominated for a few awards. It was an absolute privilege to be awarded an MBE by King Charles in 2011 (then Prince Charles) and I accepted it on behalf of everyone involved in Lloyd Park over the past 35 years. Pauline Thomas Founder of The Lloyd Park Children's Charity 1977 Local families meet in Pauline Thomas’ front room on Aveling Park Road. 1981 The group starts using an old gardeners’ shed in Walthamstow’s Lloyd Park and become known as The Lloyd Park Action Group. 1984 The Charity moves into five portacabins and a team of volunteers begin to offer parent and toddler sessions. 1987 Our first paid member of staff is hired and we introduce a playgroup. 1990 We become The Lloyd Park Under 5’s Centre and offer extended daycare for working families. 1992 The centre is destroyed by fire but the local community comes to our rescue to help us reopen. 2003 We raised £1.3 million to build The Pauline Thomas Centre in Lloyd Park. 2007 The Higham Hill Centre opens. 2009 Funded by 'Parents as Partners in Early Learning' and then the National Lottery, we worked in partnership with families to develop and introduce our family support community project, 'You and Your Child'. 2011 Expanding our interest in nature and risk-taking play comes Grow Wild. 2013 Local parents come together to fight poverty. They set up our Baby Bank to provide emergency support to families in crisis. 2016 We are awarded the contract to provide Children and Family Centre services for all families in Waltham Forest on behalf of The London Borough of Waltham Forest. 2018 Families work together to overcome barriers and fight for equality by introducing our Breaking Barriers project.
