In addition to our emerging projects and inquiry learning, the children’s learning is supported through various specialist programs happening throughout the week. Our specialist teachers work with our team of educators to continue to support the children holistically.
Our Art program is aimed to support young children’s development in multiple areas. Using art tools helps children enhance their fine motor coordination and control. Additionally children develop cognitive skills by experimenting with colour, texture and design.
Art can help children communicate their ideas and express themselves freely.
For children, art serves as a means of expressing their ideas. It’s not only about the cognitive development and problem-solving that come with it, but also about the experience of fully engaging in the creative process.
