Visual aids like 'now and next' boards are not consistently used to help them with self-care routines or prepare for structured events, which can lead to frustration and hinder their learning. Outdoor space Children enjoy a mixture of indoor and outdoor learning, making good progress in their physical development. Toddlers enjoy climbing over indoor playground equipment, strengthening their core, legs and arm muscles for walking, running and playing. Children also love playing outdoors, splashing in puddles and making patterns on the floor. EAL / language support Some children who face barriers to learning, such as speaking English as an additional language, are not always positioned to sit at the front of the group during story time, affecting their opportunity to build confidence and ability to practise speaking in front of others and engage with peers. ## Parent Reviews of Unity Stars 5.0 (1) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjVq9iC2hgASeJmUGWKwLGSJzAyX260dhkiKAfr2Q_USGL60e7_rtw=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba3) Bekki Larkin a year ago Amazing Nursery with lovely outside secure setting amongst trees.
