Junior & Senior Toddlers
Our playroom provides a happy and caring environment, which encourages children to learn social and development skills, through activities and play. At this stage of development children are introduced to feeding themselves. As well as free play with a range of activities and challenges including music, arts and crafts, gardening etc. Comfortable sleeping arrangements are available during the day.
The toddler rooms cater for children from 14 months to 3 years of age. This room is carefully designed to cater for active toddlers. At this age, a programme is introduced creating some routine to the children’s day, which prepares them for the Pre-school sessions. The Junior Toddler Room caters for the younger children from 1 to 2½ years and the Senior Toddler Room caters for older children from 2 years and 8 months to 3½ years.
Developmentally appropriate activities are introduced which will encourage independence and learning. Opportunities to discover and explore will be incorporated into the activities to stimulate the children’s senses. Children will be encouraged to be inquisitive and to ask questions to harness their natural curiosity. Examples of the activities carried out in the toddler rooms include jigsaws, matching and sorting, picture and colour recognition, counting and grading activities, cooking, arts and crafts, messy play activities such as gloop play, sand and water play, music and movement, yoga, story telling, rhymes, singing and outdoor play.
