Cultural capital is the essential knowledge, skills and behaviours that children need to prepare them for their future success. It is about giving children the best possible start to their early education with a wide range of enriching experiences. These experiences reflect the child’s environment and develop their many skills such as resilience and confidence, as well as promoting their social interactions, their relationships and culture.

Examples of some of the experiences are:

• Learn and recite a poem from a different culture to an audience 
• Visit London

• Make a large scale model 
• Learn how to thread a needle and sew a button on
• Keep a diary for a week
