Childrenaged 0 to 6 years old
Duringthe first six years of life, enormous growth, change and development takesplace. In order to accommodate the needs of these children to the fullest,three separate age groups have been created; zero to one, one to three andthree to six years old.
Thefirst group, being called the Parent-Infant community, children as young aseight weeks old attend together with infants who are on their way of settingtheir first steps and their parents. 16 Sessions are held over a 10-week periodin an environment especially set aside for accompanying the growth of thebabies. Simultaneously parents can make new friends and receive information ontopics such as; Independence, Gross motor development, toys that hinder andtoys that help, sleeping and weaning.
Oncethe children are capable of walking without support in a stable manner, theyjoin the Toddler Community comprising of toddlers from 15 months onwards. Inthis group the children are exposed to such a variety of activities, graduallyincreasing in complexity, they remain stimulated to the age of three.
Thisenormous constructive and dynamic period of their life is completed in theChildren’s House where children of three, four and five years old jointogether. Living together with older settled role models, the youngest childrenobserve and internalize the attitudes and behaviour surrounding them.
Themixed age composition of the group encourages the children to function as amature micro society whilst simultaneously developing their very own individualcharacteristics.
