Wondering what it’s like to hang out with us everyday?

A typical week

Our days are a mix of structured activities and free play. We have an expansive outdoor space with a mini forest where the children play freely, they climb trees or make cakes in the mud kitchen.

• Every Monday and Friday we serve “smørelunsj”, a buffet lunch consisting of different types of spread and vegetables.

• Every Tuesday we have music classes with a music educator.

• Every Wednesday we go on a longer trip to the Commons, Cannizaro Park and other areas in our local community.

• We spend most of Thursdays outdoors and even have our lunch outside most weeks.

• The pre-school group have lessons in mathematics and literacy two times a week.

We aim to balance our days with movement and rest, so we also read to the children a lot and encourage them to do puzzles, arts & crafts projects in addition to the topical classes we have where we address topics from the Framework Plan.

We accommodate individual needs by offering rest time for the children who benefit from it, particularly the younger ones. Each day, after lunch or fruit snack, depending on the child’s needs — we have a quiet rest period. During this time, we listen to audiobooks or calming music, creating a peaceful atmosphere. This helps the children recharge and gives them space to process their experiences and impressions from the day
