Our classes
In this class, the children are involved in play-based enquiry and adult led activities to inspire and stretch their learning. Our teachers provide children with age-appropriate activities that aim to establish a love of learning and firm foundations for the years ahead. The focus is on developing good speaking and listening skills as well as to continue to improve interpersonal relationships and nurture their growing independence.
