Extra Curricular Activities
Yoga
Our Yoga sessions support the children’s physical, emotional, and social development. Our sessions, telling a story of the giggle tree, are a well-structured yoga curriculum that creates a calm, focused environment while promoting body awareness, self-regulation, and mindfulness in little learners.
Dance
Our music and movement sessions promote physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development, improves gross motor skills, coordination, and balance.
Moreover, it allows children to express themselves creatively and develop self-confidence and self-esteem.
Music and movement also provide a platform for children to interact and socialise with their peers.
They learn about sharing, cooperation, taking turns, and working together. Music and movement activities can also improve children’s language and communication skills. This is achieved by learning new words and concepts through songs and movement.
Sports
Whether they’re naturally sporty or require a bit of practice, most children enjoy sports of one type or another at some point in their young lives. Some may take to a specific sport right away while others may identify a sport that they see potential in much later.
Two things are certain with sport though: firstly, children can only discover a sport they enjoy if they try a few out for size and, secondly, sport of any kind is likely to benefit them in a number of ways.
Exercise is essential in young children for nurturing both a healthy mind and body. Creating habits and incorporating daily activity from an early age is invaluable in terms of social, motor, and sensory development. Introducing sports to your child at the early years stage offers an opportunity for children to develop their motor skills and physical fitness. Running, jumping, throwing, and catching, contribute to their coordination, balance, and agility.
Swimming
As we live on the crossing of two waters, the River Avon and the Canal we feel it is paramount that children learn to swim as an essential life-saving skill. Swimming also supports physical development and improves strength and flexibility, increases stamina and even improves balance and posture. Swimming provides challenges and rewards accomplishments, which helps children to become self-confident and believe in their abilities.
