Babies delight as they successfully mount the steps on small climbing equipment and go safely down the slide, supporting core strength. EAL / language support All children make very good progress in their speaking skills, including those who speak English as an additional language. However, information about children's background and heritage is not always explored as effectively as possible. ## Parent Reviews of Kindergarten Kids 5.0 (3) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjXYX20Q_eAsq6yHRZqstZW0JAdWblaUWJ5VFJKD5WxYl6KMnZIk=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba6) Richard Wicks 4 years ago One of my children went to the after school club at Whitstable juniors and the staff were very good.
