Wondering what it’s like to hang out with us everyday?
A typical week
Our days are a mix of structured activities and free play. We have an expansive outdoor space with a mini forest where the children play freely, they climb trees or make cakes in the mud kitchen.
Every Monday and Friday we serve “smørelunsj”, a buffet lunch consisting of different types of spread and vegetables.
Every Tuesday we have music classes with a music educator.
Every Wednesday we go on a longer trip to the Commons, Cannizaro Park and other areas in our local community.
Thursdays are our sports day, where we do physical activities, football, yoga, dancing and obstacle courses among other things. We spend most of Thursdays outdoors and even have our lunch outside most weeks.
The pre-school group have lessons in mathematics and literacy every week.
We aim to balance our days with movement and rest, so we also read to the children a lot and encourage them to do puzzles, arts & crafts projects in addition to the topical classes we have where we address topics from the Framework Plan.
Every day we have our rest time after we’ve had fruit snack. This entails a quieter time for the children, where we listen to audiobooks or calming music. This is an important part of recharging our batteries and making sure the children take some time to process all their daily impressions and experiences.
