National Day Celebrations!

Green Class getting creative for National Day!















 Wearing our own UAE flag shirts!











Readeo!

During our recent parent/teacher meetings I noticed that some of our dad's work in different cities, and they are only able to see their families over weekends!  I discovered this brilliant website and thought of our dad's or even mum's that are travelling.  Readeo will enable you to still read a bedtime story to your child even when you are not with them!

Making marks!


When children have opportunities for spontaneous mark making, drawing and writing in both the indoor and outdoor environment, the communication process supports their learning across all six areas of learning and development.

Introducing Rolling Snack!

Children get hungry at different times, so by providing a rolling snack/snack bar our children have a choice of when they would like to eat.  Therefore, snack time becomes an integrated activity within our session.  Activities won't need to be stopped and our children can continue their play undisturbed. It also encourages language-, social- and self-help skills!
