Afternoon<\/h2>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Programs and lesson plans are designed around the children\u2019s interests, needs and strengths. Play-based learning opportunities and activities explore creativity, literacy & numeracy, science, construction, drama, music & dance, and sustainability & natural resources. Depending on the weather, activities are held indoors or in the outdoor environment.<\/p>\n

After lunch, children have the opportunity to rest or nap. Once children are rested, there is time for intentional teaching and mindfulness practices to wind down from the events of the day.<\/p>\n

In the late afternoon, each room continues with the Aspire curriculum which is tailored to your child\u2019s class and their individual needs.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
