Our Early Learning Childcare Class sessions are staggered from 08:45am – 3:00pm Monday – Friday
Early Learning Childcare Class
The daily routine is very flexible allowing for the interests of the children and unexpected learning opportunities. The routine varies from day to day, with a balance of child-led free play and structured adult-led activities.
Physical Play
Whenever possible children are encouraged to participate in physical play both indoors and outdoors. We have dance sessions and football coaching sessions from outside coaches throughout the year.
Free Play
The playroom is laid out with a variety of activities the children can play with. They can choose to play alone, with a friend or participate in a group situation. Children plan with staff daily and weekly about what they would like to experience in ELCC. Resources are changed and updated daily to offer rich experiences.
Small Group Time
This time allows staff to talk to children about what they would like to experience in the ELCC. Activities are also organised for this time, ensuring that children participate in a balanced and broad curriculum. This allows the staff to observe closely and interact with your child, providing support when necessary.
Singing/Music Time
A wonderful opportunity for all the children to participate in an enjoyable, communal activity.
Spanish
Children will participate in Spanish with a trained member of staff. They will follow Early Level Spanish and learn about colours, numbers and Spanish greetings,
