Where wonder is nurtured and learning discovered.

 

The Kindergarten provides a secure and unhurried setting in which the children can grow and thrive and discover their natural love of learning. Here the children in these early years learn through play and exploration. This is a gentle introduction to school and the wider world.

This warm family friendly atmosphere in the Kindergarten is structured with what we call the rhythm of the day and the seasons – where rhythm, repetition and structured programmes of activity reassure and develop increasing levels of skills.

There is a family atmosphere – we see the kindergarten as a second family for the children with small class sizes and a mixed age group where your child is well known, creating a deep sense of security where confidence and social skills thrive.

Children are involved in learning through activities such as baking, sewing, weaving, modelling, painting, woodwork, fairy tales, games, dance and movement, and singing. Each day has a structure within which your child will develop trust, curiosity and love for learning.

The participation in the celebration of festivals inspires a sense of awe, reverence and community as well as an understanding and respect for the different cultures both in our Kindergarten and in the wider world.
