Nursery

Nursery classes, a cornerstone of early childhood education, provide a vibrant and nurturing space for young minds to blossom. Aimed at children aged three, these classes offer a carefully curated blend of playful activities, fostering cognitive, social, and emotional development. Through engaging in storytelling, art, games, and basic academic exploration, children not only lay the groundwork for future learning but also develop essential social skills and a love for discovery.

Our Learners:

At Dreamtime Learning, we recognise that Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is an integral part of education and human development. We focus on helping our learners progress not only academically but also develop healthy identities. Our pre-primary curriculum includes activities based on the Casel Framework that encourage learners to become self-aware, equip them with skills to regulate emotions, and make responsible choices while on their journey to self-mastery.

Parental Involvement:

We value the partnership between home and school. Regular communication, parent-teacher conferences, enrichment events and tips for fostering cognitive growth at home ensure that you are actively involved in your child’s educational journey
