Yoga

More Fun
The little ones having fun in the diamond and topaz rooms.
Maths
Basic math and number concepts utilised in a preschool classroom set the foundation for learning more advanced math concepts. Early exposure to math and number activities will promote a child’s comfort with these skills. Also, additional opportunities to practice these skills will increase a child’s confidence when working with math and number concepts.
Soapy Water
The babies enjoyed some soapy water fun. Water Play gives many opportunities to develop fine and gross motor skills across age ranges. Children will increase their fine motor skills and hand eye coordination through actions like pouring, squirting, scrubbing, stirring and squeezing.
Hand prints
Making hand print crafts is an excellent way for little ones to be creative and artistic, and a fun way to preserve precious memories of growing children. Children love to use their hands when creating art.
Spaghetti play
Sensory play helps children to develop and improve their gross and fine motor skills, co-ordination and concentration. It also provides an opportunity to use all their senses to discover and explore their environment, develop their imagination and creative thinking.
End of Summer Party
The older children enjoyed their end of summer party this week, they said fair well to the sun and welcomed their new school year!!
