It's hard to believe the first two weeks of preschool have already passed!
We expect a degree of anxiousness from the children at the start of the school year. Entering an unfamiliar environment and separating from the comfort of their caregiver’s arms can be frightening. We were pleased to see how the children (each with their own level of comfort) came into the classroom, found their places, made connections with peers and the teachers and, in a relatively short period of time, began to feel safe and self-assured.
The 3-year-old class has impressed us with their self-help skills, and their ability to make transitions with ease as they adjusted to the routines of the classroom.
The 4-year-old class has brought some returning faces and some new. We have already seen new friendships develop, and after a summer gone by, old friendships renewed.
Every child enters preschool with their own strengths and abilities, and their individual challenges. Our hope is that each child will flourish under our care this coming year. Through a variety of play, we aim to offer each child many opportunities to grow socially, physically, emotionally, cognitively and creatively.
Cutting, painting, spinning, rolling, weaving, constructing, sharing.... so much to be learnt through play!
We look forward to the year ahead, and we especially look forward to personally getting to know and enjoying your children.
We thank you for entrusting your children to our care.

Having fun with glue, kosher salt and water paint.
Watching children finger paint never gets old!
