Our Curriculum
Language & Literacy
The early years are a sensitive period for language development. Children learn to understand expression and intonation, rhythm and rhyme. They gain an awareness of sounds in spoken language.
Mathematics
The sense of touch provides concrete experiences of number, ordering, addition and subtraction. Children will learn the names, link quantity and numerals, be introduced to odd and even and consolidate learning through memory of number.
Sensorial
Through exploration of the various materials of changeable dimensions, colours, shapes, sizes, textures, geometry, smell and taste – all of the faculties of intelligence are developed.
Cultural
Practical Life
This area prepares the child indirectly for all other areas of the Curriculum with order, concentration, confidence, co-ordination and independence. Exercises support fine motor manipulation, care of self skills and care of the environment.
