Building skills and a love of learning
In Kindergarten, children start to connect sounds with letters, hold a pencil with control and work with numbers. Lessons are short, hands-on and full of play, so learning feels like an adventure rather than a chore.
The program also builds a positive attitude to independent learning. Children practise fine motor skills through art and craft, and gross motor skills through sports, dance and outdoor games.
What children learn in Kindergarten:
- Phonics and letter sounds
- Writing letters and numbers
- Counting and number sense
- Shapes, colours and patterns
- Story time and show-and-tell
- Art and craft
- Music and dance
- Sports and outdoor games
