Curriculum planning

Our kindergarten curriculum

We adopt a flexible approach to planning which includes both planned units of work based on particular themes as well as spontaneous areas of interest introduced by the children. Teachers are able to recognise children’s interests during their work and play and extend their learning through thoughtful interaction and guidance. 


Each topic/theme covers a range of different curriculum areas such as: 

 

  •  Science and nature 

  •  Social sciences 

  •  Arts 

  •  Drama 

  •  Physical education

​

Our programme also explores important skills such as: 

 

  •  Reading

  •  Maths concepts

  •  Writing

 

We believe in the importance of an easy transition to school and help children gain the skills necessary to move from kindergarten to school with confidence. This includes self help skills, as well as exposure to early reading and writing in our literacy rich teaching practice.
 

Over the years our transition to school programme has been proven successful and we regularly receive outstanding feedback from schools about the children coming in from our centre.
