Full Day Kindergarten

Schedule

The schedule will be adapted to meet the needs of each specific group of children.

• A hot, organic lunch is eaten quietly together in the Kindergarten classroom, beginning with a verse of appreciation.
• This atmosphere helps the children focus on eating lunch after an active morning. An outside time in the garden follows.
• The afternoon teachers receive the children as they come back in creating a seamless transition.
• All children lie down to rest. The teachers play softly on the lyre, sing or perhaps tell a story. Some children sleep while others lie quietly and absorb their day so far. Beeswax modelling or a gentle back massage may help some to settle.
• After nap the children have a nutritious snack or work quietly at the table.
• Teachers take the children to the enclosed Kindergarten garden to play for 30 to 45 minutes.

At 3:30 pm children are picked up to return home, or stay to attend the After-School program.
