Red Kite Preschool Mt Albert

The Alphabet Train is travelling along, and we're now up to the letter W.

Fun times in the Busy Bees Room - making our own wraps for lunch, practicing cutting skills, and ... giving the doll a wooden hat?!

Children's creativity is unique!

We have some child-size chairs for sale at present, a mere $5 each!!! Great for your playroom, or for a church/temple/mosque creche etc. Please see Judy or Anita if you would like to buy one or more (up tp 10 available).😁

Building friendships....

Have a great weekend everyone!

World Oceans Day gave us the chance to think about the oceans and seas around us. Craft activities give the children opportunities to practice important skills such as cutting and gluing they will need at school. We can also talk about sea life and how we can look after the marine environment. Who knows, maybe this activity sparks an interest which later becomes a passion and leads to a future career as a marine biologist!

Sunny winter days - hiding out in the playground and fun under the parachute in the Busy Bees Room!

Getting children really engaged with what they're doing is the most important aspect of what we do here. Children aren't learning if they're not interested. But when they really are interested, you can practically see that growing brain wiring itself up.

Learning to count in the Kiwis Room. Being able to recite the numbers in their correct order is just the beginning - it's even more important to understand that the numbers correspond to actual quantities. And that means practice - lots of opportunities to count real objects.
