About Little Lambs Playschool
Since January 2008, Little Lambs Playschool has been under new management and much development and improvements have been made.
At our Playschool we want the children to feel safe and secure and enjoy their time with us. We take a holistic approach to teaching with activities planned to meet The Early Years Foundation Stage. At Little Lambs Playschool our programs and methodology are carefully designed to suit each child’s emotional, social, intellectual and physical development at a pace that is natural for his/herability.
Both our principal and senior teacher have successfully completed an EDUCARE course: Basic Educare Teachers Training. The contents of the course has also been shared with our fellow teachers and is being used and taught at our school. The principal has also attended a Mind Moves workshop which enables the teachers to identify specific problems and addressing them appropriately.
We have two classes per age group. The 2-3year olds are known as the Butterflies or the Bees and the 3-4year olds are known as the Bunnies or the Bears. There is a maximum of 13 children per class to ensure that each child gets individual attention and teacher assistance when needed.
What makes Little Lambs Playschool unique, is that the teachers are positive, motivated and have a passion for educating the “leaders of tomorrow”. There is no other facility like it in the area!
