Education And Curriculum

At Little Heffalumps Early Learning Centre, we have created a curriculum that will cater for the developmental needs and characteristics of the pre-school child. We have incorporated many activities and teaching methods from the Montessori Method of teaching as well as the curriculum that is required by the government. Our teachers are qualified and/or have experience working with pre-school children.

Our Classroom Have The Following Learning Areas

Creative area for art activities.

We have a small library where we encourage children to read.

Contruction area.

Quiet area for educational play with puzzles and games.

We have a themed table. In each class the teacher uses the themes to encourage each child to share their viewa on the topic and encourages the child to speak in a group environment.

Each class enjoys music and dance/actions on a regular basis.

At Little Heffalumps we believe that children learn and develop through play and we have a lovely play area which has climbing appartus, swings and a sandpit, water play (in summer) and sensory tray to encourage active play and gross-motor developments.

We do a lot of developmental games and exercise to help develop ball skills and stimulate gross motor development.
