Preschool - FS1

3's to 4's

  • Preschool is an important time for children as they are now building a stronger sense of their own identity and their place in a wider world. We promote children to be their own thinkers in an organized atmosphere as children are learning to recognise the importance of social rules and customs, to show understanding and tolerance of others.

    They are learning cause and effect. 

    We also teach children to work well within a group through listening, sharing and cooperation.
