##### Regulation 20 — Facilities for rest and play

- Preschool rooms 1, 2 and 3 did not have adequate cosy areas with furniture or equipment conducive to rest. As children in pre-school room 1 and 3 can be in these rooms for more than 5 hours it is essential that a designated area be provided that is conducive to relaxation so as to offer children down time from other activities. Therefore, it is a requirement that each of these three rooms develops a designated defined area set up to create the opportunity and atmosphere that is favourable for children’s rest
- The grass in the natural play garden area had become totally overgrown and the raised beds were not in use. This area required attention in order to render it suitable for children to use over the coming months

- The manager stated in the response on the 10 May 2024 that the service had purchased new items for cosy areas in each room, some of these items had arrived and the service was waiting on the remainder to come. Preschool 2 had new bean bag sofa and armchair, Preschool 3 had two bean bags. Further items for the rest areas such as bean bags and mats were on order, the manager submitted receipt from a reputable company dated 7 May 2024 for the purchase of these items
- The manager stated in the response on 10 May 2024 that the grass in the natural play garden area was cut,and submitted photographic evidence of same. The manager stated also that a regular maintenance person was now employed to maintain this.
