The R's behind the classes:
⭐ In conjunction with the Curriculum and at the core of the classes are the Magical Music and Movement 4 R’s: Rhyme, Rhythm, Repetition & Routine. Each R being important in ensuring the children’s enjoyment and enthusiasm.
⭐ Repetition - is fundamental to under fives 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.
⭐ Routine -Following the same pattern of activities each week really helps the little ones even babies to feel secure. This builds confidence which enables them to join in more actively & independently.
