A day at Burpham Preschool
At our preschool, each day is filled with fun, learning through play and meaningful connections in a warm and nurturing environment. Children begin the day with a group activity that encourage friendship, communication and teamwork, followed by engaging sessions in music, art, yoga, dance and PE that help develop creativity, confidence, coordination and self-expression.
Through-out the day, children explore hands-on learning experiences, imaginative play and interactive circle times designated to support their social, emotional and academic development.
We also place great importance on community and routine, with everyone coming together to enjoy healthy snacks and lunch as a group, helping children build independence, table manners and a sense of belonging.
