Our Learning Environment
"The work of education is divided between the teacher and the environment." Maria Montessori
We recognise how critical the first few years of life are in a child's development and work closely with parents to provide personalised learning opportunities, enabling them to fulfil their potential. We offer a fun, calm and nurturing learning environment that challenges children according to their stage of development, recognising the significant difference between a child that has just turned two and an emerging three year old.
We use our knowledge of children's interests/schemas to plan engaging learning experiences that underpin the characteristics of effective learning, ensuring children are empowered to become confident and creative lifelong learners. These characteristics develop as they learn to do new things, acquire new skills, develop socially and emotionally, and become better communicators.
Some of our learning areas include:
- Block play area
- Creative
- Malleable area
- Small-world area
- Home-corner
- Loose parts
- Reading
- Outdoors
- Sand/water
- Sensory
- Mud play
