Core Values and beliefs of classes
  • Help children learn key early learning skills (linked to the Governments Early Learning Goals) through the medium of music and movement
  • Foster a love of music and dancing whilst building confidence
  • Help the children to feel secure and able to join in the activities independently
The R's behind the classes: 
RHYME & RHYTHM
The aim is to foster a love of music and movement through activities, wonderful props and very carefully selected nursery rhymes, number songs & action songs.  
Research has shown that music has a positive influence on young
children's cognitive skills. (Nemours Foundation)


REPETITION
Repetition is fundamental to children’s learning, therefore the music & songs run in 4 to 6 week cycles to ensure everyone benefits from repeating the same songs & has a real chance to learn.  
 “Few things build a child's brain and open opportunities for learning more than consistent repetition." Sean Brotherson

ROUTINE
Following the same pattern of activities each week really helps the children to feel secure and this builds confidence which in turn enables them to join in more actively & independently.   
"Regular  patterns of activity create routine and foster a sense of security and
self-confidence" Steiner
