Playgroup
The Playgroup programme, which is flexible and less structured, uses creative play to engage the child in the learning process. Through an integrated process of learning using creative play, the children will pick up language skills, gross motor skills and numeracy skills. Thematic activities and learning materials all foster the different developmental areas of the children.
