Play is child's work; it is the child's way of learning. Play develops good work habits e.g. independence, co-operation and the ability to follow direction. It is the bridge to friendship and gives the opportunity to experiment and to develop the imagination. It teaches the skills of responsibilities, of companionship, but above all that play should be fun.
Activities that take place in the centre include:
Educational Exercise
The program of activities available to suit individual age groups is available upon request, and is also displayed in each playroom.
This is a large bright classroom in a child centred environment. Our Preschool session runs from 9.00 am to 12.30 pm all year (excluding Bank Holidays, Good Friday and the Christmas Period). Our aim is to develop the individual personality of the child.
Our teaching is divided into 5 sections/areas:
Practical Life: helps the child develop skills for everyday living e.g. spooning, pouring, and fastening
Sensorial: refines the child's senses e.g. touch, smell, rough/smooth, textures etc.
Language: reading and writing skills
Maths: numbers, addition and subtraction Culture: nature studies, history, geography, human body and different cultures
The Preschool Room also consists of a Play Group in the afternoon from 2.00 pm to 5.00 pm.
