‘Just for Kids’ (Dancing with Trish)

Exposure to music from early childhood onwards helps children to speak more clearly, develop a larger vocabulary, and strengthen social and emotional skills as well as focusing on their physical development.

Children can participate in weekly music and movement classes. Each class is specifically designed to teach the children a variety of songs, dances, and musical activities, getting them involved in a ‘hands on,’ interactive way.

LOTE Programs

Learning languages expands a child’s world view and exposure to languages in early childhood allows them to be exposed to customs and values belonging to different societies thus encouraging them to think about new points of views and improving cultural sensitivity.

Children aged 0-5 years can join in our LOTE classes weekly learning languages such as HINDI, SPANISH or MANDARIN. The program is designed to help children learn to speak and identify the language using storytelling and songs.

‘Sounds Like This’ – Music Program with Julie

Once a week, children are offered the opportunity to engage in our Music Program with our music teacher Julie. Children learn music multidimensionally, using their voices, bodies, and percussion.

Children sing, echo, and call and response songs, use storytelling, imaginative play, sensory play, and games to build children’s confidence while encouraging creativity and expression.

Yoga and Mindfulness

The practice of yoga is described as holistic and affects all levels of a child’s being. The physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of a child are subtly brought into balance.

Yoga helps calm and focus children, which is of benefit to any child. It provides children of all ages with an unwavering belief in themselves and a strong physical, mental and emotional foundation that lasts for their entire life.
