Welcome to Thornbury Kids

  • At Thornbury Kids we work on the principle that developing a secure relationship between staff and child will do far more in fostering a lifelong passion for learning, than intellectual stimulus alone.

  • Children are born ready to learn

  • Children are naive enquirers

  • A child's relationships and experiences during the early years greatly influence how their brain grows

  • Young children are deeply affected by their early experiences

  • The environment provided by the child's first caregivers has profound affects on virtually every facet of early development

  • Becoming ready for school is an ongoing process from the moment of birth

  • Children's relationships with parents and other caregivers actually affect the way children's brains become wired

  • Supporting children's development requires sustained patience. Patience is knowledge disguised

  • Capture the moment

  • During the first three years, trillions of brain cells are being made

  • It takes 5 years to prepare a child for school

  • Did you know that 75% of brain growth develops between birth and 6 years of age

  • And most importantly... Play is a child's work!
