Preschool

The two-year-old class, Sunflowers is having an exciting journey into the tiny world of bugs! Through hands-on activities, creative projects, and outdoor exploration, our little learners are discovering just how fascinating insects can be.

With little hands hard at work, our preschoolers molded colorful playdough into wiggly worms and multi-legged critters.

Armed with magnifying glasses and a big dose of curiosity, we took a nature walk to find real bugs! From crawling ants and spiders to wiggling worms, fluttering butterflies, and buzzing bees the children were thrilled to observe these tiny creatures in their natural habitats.

The children transformed walnut shells, into adorable ladybugs and they used eyedroppers to mix and drop colorful liquid watercolors onto paper, creating beautiful floral designs.

With hands-on activities we encourage respect for all living things and curiosity about nature, laying the foundation for future scientists, artists, and explorers!

Over the past few weeks, the Daisy class together with the Dandelion class have explored the exciting world of tools, construction, and creative building! Through hands-on activities, the children have learned about different types of tools, discovered how they work, and practiced using them safely to build and create.

One of the highlights of our learning has been a special visit from Titi, one of our maintenance team members. He has given a talk to both classes about his toolkit, showing the children how he uses different tools for his work. The children have been fascinated as he has demonstrated how to drill holes and hammer pieces of wood together. His visit sparked many curious questions and has inspired the children to experiment with their own building projects.

Throughout this unit, the children have worked with various materials to construct structures, from towers and bridges to creative designs of their own. As they have built and problem-solved together, they have developed spatial awareness, fine motor skills, and a sense of teamwork.

It has been wonderful to see their confidence grow as they have explored, constructed, and created and continue to do so. We are excited for our fieldtrip to EuroElektra on Friday 28 February where we will learn about renewable and sustainable energy sources. 

The 4-year-old Dandelion class is completely engaged in our new unit " I Build, I Create".  They are learning safety rules so that they can use 'real' tools properly.  They have been hammering, drilling and making blueprints. They are practically their skills so that they can create a hedgehog with really wood and nails!
