We aim to foster the children’s numeracy, literacy and school-readiness skills within all aspects of our program. Our numeracy and literacy-rich environment emphasizes the importance (amongst others) of speaking, reading, and writing as well as sequencing, counting and problem-solving in the learning of all children. We present a play-based approach to numeracy and literacy which allows children to organise and make sense of their social worlds, as they engage actively with people, objects and representations.
School-readiness begins in the Caterpillar group, evolves in the Chrysalis group and funnels into a comprehensive pre-school program in the Butterfly Room.
