Early Years Foundation Stage
At Bodhi Tree, our curriculum is rooted in connection, creativity, and care. Over the years, we’ve built a natural and nurturing relationship with parents, recognizing the unique challenges and joys of early parenthood. We work hand-in-hand with families to ensure every child feels safe, happy, and at home.
Our approach embraces simplicity and sensory exploration. We use homemade, non-toxic materials—like our much-loved scented playdough and engaging messy play activities—to spark curiosity and joy.
Children are introduced to a rich world of learning through music, movement, and global culture. They explore numeracy through playful, hands-on games and experience yoga through stories, animals, and imaginative play. Singing sessions include multiple languages—English, Italian, French, and more—expanding both vocabulary and cultural appreciation.
We also take full advantage of London’s vibrant offerings—from museums to festivals and green parks. Outdoor adventures are not just occasional outings but a vital part of our weekly rhythm, giving children the chance to build physical confidence, social skills, and a sense of wonder about the world around them.

Food
At Bodhi Tree, we believe that nourishing food is the foundation of a child’s well-being. What children eat impacts their mood, focus, energy, and overall happiness—so we treat every meal as an essential part of their development.
Our plant-based menu is vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free, and made with love. We cook fresh, organic meals on-site daily, using seasonal ingredients sourced from local farmers’ markets. From market to plate, our food is guided by nature’s rhythm and our team’s creativity.
Children are introduced to a rainbow of fruits, vegetables, legumes, and grains—helping them develop healthy eating habits and adventurous taste buds early on. At mealtime, teachers and children eat together, modeling mindful eating and encouraging positive food experiences.
By focusing on whole, unprocessed foods, we ensure every child receives the nutrients they need without the additives they don’t. It’s real food for growing bodies, curious minds, and happy hearts.

Montessori
At Bodhi Tree, our Montessori-inspired approach places the child at the heart of learning. We honor each child’s unique rhythm, interests, and abilities—offering them the freedom to explore at their own pace in a thoughtfully prepared environment. This nurtures independence, self-confidence, and a lasting love for learning.
Children are encouraged to be curious thinkers, not passive learners. They make choices, solve problems, and engage in hands-on, real-world activities that deepen their understanding and spark joy.
Our curriculum is tailored to each child's developmental stage, creating an experience that’s both meaningful and effective. By treating children as whole individuals—not just students—we foster emotional growth, resilience, and a strong sense of self-worth that supports them well beyond the classroom.
