About Rothewood Academy

"I feel extremely lucky to have my daughter enrolled in Rothewood. It is undoubtedly the best decision I've made for her by now.

She has been attending Rothewood since she was 12 months old. She was a tiny baby in the baby class, and now she has blossomed into a confident JK3 student. The care and support she's received throughout her growth have been outstanding!"

"My son went in to rothewood since he was 13 month, and now he is 2 years old, I can’t explain how grateful and satisfied I am to all the teachers and staff. My son barely cried when he went to the daycare at first, and sometimes he doesn’t want to go home in the afternoon. He likes all his teachers. All events are interesting, and went really well. Really thankful to all the teachers, and also Miss Sandy and Michelle! I have already recommended to my friends."

UNIQUE METHODOLOGY

Our approach incorporates the best methodologies of Reggio Emilia, Montessori, and the latest early learning research from Europe and Australia.

Our program creates a foundation for your child’s lifelong skills as a global citizen, teaching them how to respect others, channel their natural curiosity, share and take responsibility, and question and explore their environment.

We present your child with the possibility to discover and challenge themselves and their potential.

INDEPENDENT LEARNING

All of our teachers go through our Rothewood Teacher Training Program. The 4-month program provides them with the tools to be successful within our unique curriculum.

ROTHEWOOD CERTIFIED TEACHERS

INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION

We understand that individual children can learn at different speeds, based on their own particular learning needs.

Our Rothewood curriculum is age appropriate and our developmental activities are to ensure every child achieves success. Each of our classrooms is set up by age.

The Rothewood motto is Head. Hands. Heart. This is referencing the Rothewood Educational Method that is dedicated to teaching the whole child – head, hands, and heart. Our holistic approach to early learning is what makes Rothewood unique.

Our Approach

HEALTHY, FAMILY-STYLE KITCHEN

Our in-house chefs create healthy food, serving family-style to help develop social skills and empower them to make their own food choices.

Nutrition is an important asset to a child’s development. All of our ingredients ensure meals are healthy and nutritious. At Rothewood we do our best to avoid any food, which includes preservatives and/or artificial flavours or colours.

"As a mom of a 2.5-year-old, I couldn’t be happier with Rothewood Academy. My daughter is always excited to go and comes home talking about her day with so much joy. The staff are warm, caring, and truly make each child feel special. I’ve seen her grow so much in confidence, communication, and social skills since starting. Knowing she’s in a safe, loving, and fun environment gives me such peace of mind. We’re so thankful to have found this daycare—it feels like a second home!"

Iqra Rafiq

"The staff is amazing with so much heart and caring mindset. It’s extremely delightful seeing my son get excited about going to daycare here. The teachers really make an effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualized way. I can see the growth and learning every day! The management is really committed to providing a safe and loving environment and we’re very thankful to the whole team at Rothewood Surrey."

Established in 2015 Rothewood Academy has always put an emphasis on putting natural materials into our learning environments. Each of our daycare centres has been carefully created with spacious classrooms, lots of natural light and beautifully designed natural playgrounds. Each classroom has been filled with natural wood furniture and materials. We do our best to eliminate as much plastic as we can from your child’s learning environment.

At Rothewood Academy Early Learning our passion and belief is to help the individual child embrace their inquisitiveness and creativity through play based and natural play learning environments and activities. Our curriculum is based on inquiry and exploration with the goal of encouraging children to become life-long learners and to be curious about the world.

Rothewood children will discover the world and community around them through exploration and inquiry while building the knowledge and skills which will support them in the future.

Our schools are built on the foundation of respect, where children respect themselves and others with our teachers wholeheartedly providing for a positive fun, happy and rewarding school experience for every child. Parents and teachers are strong partners in their child’s learning journey.

All our Rothewood Academy Early Learning centres boast of caring, passionate and experienced teachers who work hard to provide a range of high-quality learning opportunities that stimulate and support the individual needs and abilities of each child. This is accomplished by consciously working on providing a collaborative culture, creating a strong sense of community and team spirit.

Strong partnerships with parents and the wider community is an enabling factor for us as we scaffold each child in their individual needs and abilities. This, in turn, provides a comprehensive approach to challenging our students to achieve their best and build self-confidence in their personal abilities. These strong foundations of academic and social capabilities are visible in all our students and are a reflection of The Rothewood Way.
