ABC

Discovering the world together

Our ABC classes are specially designed for our youngest learners, aged 3 to 15 months and their parents/carers. Fun, engaging sessions that focus on sensory discovery and gentle exploration. 

​

Babies interact with a variety of textures, sounds, and toys in a calm, small-group setting. Parents and carers are encouraged to join in or simply observe, helping their children to feel secure as they explore new experiences.

​

Activities include music, rhyme, storytelling, and sensory play, providing early exposure to language and movement in a relaxed, nurturing environment.

First steps

Our accompanied groups introduce young children to early learning in a warm, supportive environment, prior to them joining the pre-school.

Our ABC and Beginners classes provide children with a safe space for exploration, play, and development, with a parent or carer accompanying them. Through sensory activities, structured play, and interactive sessions, children begin to develop essential social and cognitive skills.

Beginners

Exploring and learning

Our Beginners classes are a gentle introduction to group activities for children aged 15 months to 2.5 years, who are ready to explore a bit more independently.

​

These lightly structured sessions introduce routines like story time, snack time, and group activities, which help toddlers develop social skills, confidence, and concentration.

​

A variety of activities are set out for the children. These include water play, construction, puzzles, books, arts and crafts, small world toys and props which encourage role-play. Some children start playing right away. Others wait and observe. We believe strongly that children should be allowed to join in at their own pace and in their own time.

​

Children who attend the Beginners programme advance to one of our pre-schools the following academic year.
