WHAT IS OPEN ENDED PLAY?

With open ended play, we can observe and learn about the inner world of the whole being we are nurturing.
Loose parts play, free in its nature, with no right or wrong, allows children to develop their own style, techniques, interests, confident in the knowledge that everything is acceptable.

Open-ended means that there is no pre-determined or specific use for them. So they offer boundless opportunities for creative exploration.

A diverse array of such materials can kindle a child’s imagination, fostering their ability to shape their surroundings and ultimately nurturing creative and innovative thinking as they grow.

Unstructured play offers significant advantages as it:
* Inspires the use of imagination, investigation, and problem-solving skills.
* Promotes independent play without step-by-step instructions.
* Cultivates confidence, curiosity, patience, and resilience, essential skills applicable to various aspects of schooling and life.
* Can last over extended periods of time, often spanning several days or more.

THE POWER OF CHOICE

When a child makes decisions and pushes away distractions like, “Ah, I want to go to blocks – no, I want to go to the home corner”, and then decides, “I’m going to blocks,” they’re pushing away the distractions of the other choices. This builds executive control. It’s how we learn to focus, plan, and attend to tasks.

Play builds executive function.

Trust play. ❤️

Freedom is a value that lives in our art studio. Freedom to try new things, to express yourself, to make a mess.

Childhood should be about pouring out the bottle of paint and splashing your hands around in it. Just because.

Le langage oral est au cœur des apprentissages en maternelle. Dans nos écoles le cahier du week-end est utilisé pour développer la capacité des enfants à raconter des histoires et pour établir un lien entre l’école et la maison.

Le cahier de vie offre des situations de communication authentiques où le langage joue un rôle primordial.

We’re not just “playing” 👉 we’re laying the foundations for lifelong wellbeing.
🌱Prioritising regular nature play for your child is one of the most powerful things you can do to give them the best start in life.
This time is so important for their growth and development - and just as we ensure they get adequate sleep, nutrients and cuddles - we need to make sure they get adequate nature time too.
We’ll sing it from the rooftops until we go hoarse:
🌱Nature play is a necessity🌱
